'Combating' irregular migration is one of the key challenges to migration management at EU level. This book addresses one of the most pressing structural problems regarding the EU’s return policy: the low return rate of irregularly staying migrants.

In this regard the EU Return Directive obliges Member States to issue a return decision, yet only 40% of such decisions are enforced annually. Moreover, despite the political and legal efforts, the EU is not making any significant progress in enforcing the rules it has laid down in the Return Directive. The legislation of EU Member States may, however, serve as a source for possible solutions to ‘combat’ the problem of irregularly staying migrants.

It is for this reason that the book compares the system of regularisations in Austria, Germany and Spain. Regularisations constitute an effective alternative to returns because they terminate the irregular residence of migrants, not through deportation, but rather by granting a right of residence. Regularisation is therefore understood as each legal decision that awards legal residency to irregularly staying migrants. As is shown by the examination and comparison of regularisations in Austria, Germany and Spain, differentiated systems of regularisation exist at national level. However, EU regularisations supplementing the present return policy would be more effective at ‘combating’ irregular migration at EU level.

Reviews for Regularisations of Irregularly Staying Migrants in the EU: A Comparative Legal Analysis of Austria, Germany and Spain

[T]his new monograph is an important contribution to the field of regularisation in the EU, and fills a key gap in the current literature by providing a systematic, integrated and detailed legal analysis of this phenomenon at the level of the Member States. It updates dated studies of regularisation from the perspective of legal science, a necessary move in a field of law that is both complex and rapidly evolving. * European Law Review *
