Knowledge of, about, for, and against Criminalized Migration

Author

Abstract

While this volume contributes to the expansion of knowledge about the criminalization of migration, this article seeks to build on collected contributions by identifying gaps that can impede uptake of this knowledge, particularly by policymakers and practitioners. I argue that a key challenge is not necessarily a lack of scientific evidence and information, but limits to the use or uptake of research. These limits are characterized as being linked to more general challenges of “post-normal†science when facts and values can at times be uncertain and contested while the stakes are very high and the need for decisions is seen as being urgent.
