About this book
This book analyzes the externalization of the EU’s immigration and asylum practices towards non-member transit countries and the consequences of this process. Selected policy areas of externalization (border management, visa policy, readmission agreements and asylum policy) are applied to Turkey and Morocco as two main migration transit countries within two different institutional cooperation mechanisms: Turkey as an EU candidate country within the EU’s enlargement policy; Morocco without membership prospect within the EU’s neighborhood policy. Yıldız applies theoretical debates and critically compares the rhetoric in policy papers with practice in the field. This volume not only contributes to the issue of the external dimension of EU immigration policy by incorporating transit countries into the debate, but also expands upon our understanding of the EU’s contested external governance paradigm. It will be of use to students, scholars, and policy makers in the field of European studies, migration and asylum studies, international relations, and political science.

Reviews
“If there is one 'must-read' this year for scholars of the European Union and the current refugee crisis, this pioneering volume is it. Dr. Yıldız provides a brilliant analysis of how this crisis is transforming the European Neighborhood and the EU's relationship with two of its most important neighbors.” (Professor Beverly Kay Crawford, University of California, Berkeley, USA)
“Migration has always been high on the agenda of the EU yet never has the EU faced a migration crisis that risks unraveling it. This book is an extremely timely contribution to discussing the manner in which the EU’s migration policies are intertwined with those of Morocco and Turkey. Will the EU be able to constructively engage these two countries that themselves face similar challenges as they transform from being once emigration to immigration and transit countries?” (Professor Kemal Kirişci, Brookings Institute, USA)
“The EU is facing the greatest migration crisis in its history, armed with an institutional and policy perspective that emphasizes security and the “externalization” of the burden to non-members. This volume utilizes conceptual, theoretical and comparative approaches to produce significant insight into the EU’s actions and those of two key non-EU actors: Morocco and Turkey.” (Professor Ronald H. Linden, University of Pittsburgh, USA)
