Abstract

Abstract: This article introduces the volume on New Actors and Contested Architectures in Global Migration Governance . It presents the aims and scope of the volume, followed by an overview of international cooperation in global migration governance, migration management and advocacy for migrants. We then discuss 'new' actors and how they maintain, contest or even alter established architectures and assemblages, followed by a presentation of the articles included in the volume. In conclusion, we reflect on the ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic may affect these dynamics.
