Curtain up explores city diplomacy in global migration governance. The
author lays out the paradox that cities, although increasingly de facto
migration actors in an urbanizing world, lack channels to influence
international policies that directly impact local realities. Drawing on
ten case studies from around the world, the author shows that local
governments strive to overcome this paradox through global-level
interaction with national and international actors contributing to the
emergence of a role of cities in global migration governance. Cities
draw on this role to influence migration narratives, place local issues
on global agendas and demand a seat at decision-making tables. Advancing
the analysis of cities as global-level actors, the author introduces
role theory to migration studies and presents a series of timely policy
recommendations. These set out concrete steps towards a stronger
institutionalization of city diplomacy in global migration governance.
This
book is written for scholars of migration studies, urban studies, and
international relations as well as for practitioners focusing on
multi-level migration governance, city diplomacy and multi-stakeholder
partnerships.
