الوصف: Adopting a bottom-up approach, and taking the EU‒Turkey deal as a case study, this Ph.D. thesis provides empirical evidence about the impact of externalisation policies on refugees’ daily lives and on their onward migration decisions. Chapter 1 briefly introduces the topic and the conceptual and contextual background. Chapter 2 focuses on the daily experiences and coping strategies of those who have been contained on the Greek islands of Lesbos and Chios. Chapter 3 explores the onward migration aspirations of Syrian men with precarious legal status living in Istanbul. Chapter 4 analyses the impact of humanitarian aid on Syrian refugees’ aspirations to move on from Turkey. And finally, Chapter 5 summarizes the contributions and limitations of the Ph.D. thesis as well as providing pathways for future research. In sum, this Ph.D. thesis constitutes an effort to highlight the harm that these policies inflict on refugees and to bring refugees’ own voices into the dialogue about immigration policy.

الوصف: This article focuses on the experiences and coping strategies of those who have sought asylum on the Greek islands of Lesbos and Chios after the EU–Turkey deal of March 2016. Based on semi-structured interviews with asylum seekers and participatory observations on the two islands between July and August 2017, we explore the impact of the EU–Turkey deal on asylum seekers and how they cope with it. Although the implementation of the deal has an effect on their ability to cross irregularly to Europe, our findings show that many asylum seekers still come to the islands, aspiring to move on and, in some cases, succeeding. A combination of factors facilitates or hinders a secondary movement from the islands despite the structural constraints. We saw that, often, those with a genuine asylum claim choose to move on despite the risk of losing their legal status. In this way, our research challenges the discursive categorization of those who wait through containment as ‘deserving refugees’ and those who move on as ‘undeserving migrants’ and provides a critical analysis of current European migration policies.
