本文回顾了自1997年新工党政府当选以来,英国移民法和移民政策的发展。它认为,随着接纳大量劳工移徙的政策开放,与前几届政府的零移民传统发生了重大决裂。在这一新计划中,难民和寻求庇护者的流动被视为对目前所需的有序形式的有管理的移徙流动的威胁。因此,新的劳工政策大大侵蚀了寻求庇护者的权利。这项研究认为,这种方法对移民和种族关系政策的其他领域也有影响。移民管理现在的目的是管理移民生活的更广泛方面,包括获得工作、福利服务、家庭团聚,以及最终融入社会和获得公民身份。
This article reviews developments in immigration law and policy in the UK since the election of the New Labour government in 1997. It argues that a significant break was made with the zero immigration traditions of previous governments as policy was opened to the admission of significant levels of labour migration. Within this new schema the movement of refugees and asylum-seekers has been seen as a threat to the orderly form of managed migration flows now required. Consequently, New Labour policies have significantly eroded the rights of asylum-seekers. The study argues that this approach has implications for other areas of immigration and race relations policy. Migration management is now intended to regulate wider aspects of the life of immigrants, including access to jobs, welfare services, family reunification, and ultimately integration and the acquisition of citizenship.
