After Deportation

This book analyses post-deportation outcomes and focuses on what happens to migrants and failed asylum seekers after deportation. Although there is a growing literature on detention and deportation, academic research on post-deportation is scarce. The book produces knowledge about the consequences of forced removal for deportee's adjustment and reintegration in so-called home country. As the pattern of migration changes, new research approaches are needed. This book contributes to establish a more multifaceted picture of criminalization of migration and adds novel aspects and approaches, both theoretically and empirically, to the field of migration research.

Provides much needed insight into what happens to migrants and failed asylum seekers post-deportation Offers a detailed comparative perspective across multiple regions Makes an important contribution to the field of irregular migration research Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
