An analysis of the linkages between immigration and security must consider three basic issues and tasks. First of all, it must look at the definition of the concepts in use: threat, referent object and the logic or rationale that brings both concepts together. Secondly, the framing of immigration within the discourse on security issues is to be tackled. And thirdly, it must take into account the measures and public policy instruments related to that framing. This article focuses on these three interrelated issues and explores those questions with particular reference to the EU area. The first part reviews the scholarly literature that explores the linkage between migration and security in order to identify what is known as the 'threat', the referent object and the rationales established in discourses since the 1990s. During this decade the EU began to develop its 'common' immigration policy, while at the same time critiques of the emerging securitisation of migration were developed. The second part of this research traces the effects of the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 on discourses and public policies in the EU. The analysis of post 9/11 developments in the EU provides evidence to deny on the hand, that EU institutions' discourses on immigration policies consider this phenomenon as an existential threat and, on the other hand, to reject that extraordinary measures or courses of actions had followed those terrorist attacks. A global approach towards migration is underway although in need of political impetus.

Este documento examina la relación entre el idioma y las políticas migratorias de los países en los que se asientan los inmigrantes con fines de residencia más o menos permanente. El estudio de la evolución de esa relación se centra en el análisis de los diferentes instrumentos o fórmulas de políticas públicas que incorporan, abordan y configuran con diferentes fines los requisitos idiomáticos relativos a los no nacionales del país receptor.

Los recientes avances de los países occidentales en cooperación, información y tecnología para la gestión de la inmigración irregular son analizados a la luz de los problemas de seguridad manifestados por los atentados de islamistas yihadistas en Occidente. Las enseñanzas adquiridas a partir de las investigaciones de los atentados islamistas recientes han influido en el debate y las iniciativas sobre el control de flujos de personas. Aunque las políticas migratorias no han sido alteradas en sus objetivos, las reformas y medidas discutidas y abordadas en los últimos meses evidencian una tendencia hacia una nueva formulación de la gestión y una mejora de los instrumentos que sirven para controlar el tránsito de las personas a través de las fronteras. Tres claves destacan en la dimensión del control de fronteras de las políticas migratorias. En primer lugar, la predisposición y búsqueda activa de mayor confianza y cooperación entre los gestores de las fronteras incluso a nivel operativo. En segundo lugar, el deseo de incrementar la información e inteligencia con respecto a los movimientos de personas para trabajar eficazmente en la disminución de la irregularidad. En tercer lugar, la incorporación de tecnología punta.

AbstractBased on two extended qualitative research projects conducted between 2017 and 2022, this paper analyses the refugee reception programme (RP) in Spain, which is managed both by the central state and some specialised social organisations. This cross‐sectoral RP presents notable and enduring problems, which have deepened since the increase in asylum applications during the so‐called European refugee crisis in 2015. This paper affirms that, although this increase in asylum seekers represents a serious challenge, the persistent shortcomings of the RP are better explained by a set of structural factors related to (1) the restrictive institutional model of asylum and immigration policy, (2) the lack of development of the RP, its dispersal policy and its social intervention design, (3) the lack of multilevel governance between the State and the municipalities and regional administration and (4) the current neoliberal and nativist policies.
