The need for action spurred by the current European migration crisis has given
way to a plethora of new policy oriented studies as well as to basic research. In
fact we already know a bt about the factors that mobilize or immobilize people.,
but sometimes there is little willingness
—
or even outright opposition
—
to take
this knowiedge into consideration. ln other instances, further studies are
needed to determine questions such as: What is the relationship between the
number of refugees and the social cohesion in a given country? What is the
relationship between different policies and the effects of these (e.g. stricter
border enforcement versus humanitarianism)? What is the probability that
particular policies will have unexpected and unintended consequences?
Time and again, numerous studies have shown that the nature, causes and
consequences of migration and refugee movements are different from the
assumptions guiding policy making and practice. At this DIIS migration seminar
we take a sobering view on what we know about mig ration, what we lack
further knowiedge about and what we can do to make existing knowledge
inform national and international policy making.
