Sažetak
In their seminal work “Worlds in Motion”, Douglas Massey et al. contend that international migration is “the emblematic social, political, and economic issue of the twenty first century” (1998: ix). Various macrodrivers as well as diverse migration systems result in multitudes of migration patterns, directions and volumes, pointing to uneven distribution of migrants heading from ‘developing’ to the countries of ‘Global North’. Thus, many nation-state parties within the United Nations have tried to envisage more comprehensive global politics that would sustain ‘desired’ modes of migration and mobility in comparison to the unwanted ones. With a socio-legal and critical approach this presentation will tackle the issue of recent attempts regarding the ‘Global migration governance’, by scrutinizing three contemporary legal and policy instruments in dealing with migrants and refugees, namely the New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants ; the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration ; and the Global Compact on Refugees. It will be analyzed if and when these globally and multilaterally envisioned agendas could withstand the test of adherence to human rights, rather than being instrumentalized by more powerful nations merely as instruments of control of the migrant populations, or completely ignored and rejected by other nations, under the sovereignty claims.
