This infographic shows the factors influencing migration decision-making. At the global/national level, factors such as the economy, environment (including climate change), politics, and culture contribute to a person's decision to migrate. These factors affect the individual's adaptive capacity and vulnerability.
The decision to migrate is represented as being on a spectrum from more voluntary to more involuntary. Adaptive capacity increases the voluntary nature of migration, while vulnerability leads to more involuntary migration.
At the individual level, specific characteristics such as class, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, gender, and education further influence this decision. Some of these factors, like class and education, can enhance adaptive capacity, while others, like ethnicity and gender, may increase vulnerability, thereby pushing the migration decision toward the involuntary end of the spectrum.
This paper by Dr. Christiane Fröhlich and Dr. Lea Müller-Funk addresses the question of how different actors govern mobility during civil war, and how mobility control and processes of state-making interact in such settings.
This infographic illustrates the (im)mobility trajectories in conflict settings, specifically focusing on Syria. It highlights various regions and the displacement patterns within these conflict zones. Key areas depicted include Idlib, Aleppo, Damascus, and surrounding regions.
In this paper, we study the question of who and what drives forced migration governance in origin, host, and transit states, drawing on empirical material from the contemporary Syrian and Libyan, and the historical Algerian displacement situations.
The 5th conference of the Network for Displacement Research brings together researchers to shed light on the global, regional and local contexts of flight and displacement, including the causes and trends that force people to be mobile, but also immobile.
For their outstanding article “Mobility Control as State-Making in Civil War: Forcing Exit, Selective Return, and Strategic Laissez-Faire,” published in Migration Politics, Dr. Christiane Fröhlich and Dr. Lea Müller-Funk were awarded this year’s Routledge Area Studies Interdisciplinarity Award.
