The proposed project examines the "Triple Win” recruitment program for nurses between the Philippines and Germany. Recently, Triple Win has become the primary recruitment program. It stands paradigmatically for a current trend in migration policy towards maximizing potentials of migration through managed schemes. The proposed project draws on insights from past work on care migration, but goes beyond the empirical focus on managed migration and nurse migration by conceptualizing these fields through the lens of border regime research. From this perspective, borders hold a twofold relevance in recruitment processes. On the one hand, they are understood as productive in the sense that migration is supposed to take place only in specific and "desired” ways through their functioning. On the other hand, borders themselves are only temporarily stable as nurse migration bears relative autonomy, even in formalized recruitment processes. Attempts to govern and control these processes are thus confronted with the migrants’ own agendas and practices. The proposed project thus analyzes firstly which political-economic developments guide recruitment program Triple Win: Which actors are in participating, in what way and how is the necessity of nurse recruitment framed discursively? Secondly, it studies how "desired migration” is constructed through Triple Win and how this entails specific subjectivation processes. In managed migration projects, migrants are configured as bearers of labor power in demand, thus affecting their biographies. Thirdly, it explores how migrants are able to resist and subvert the interpellations and requirements within Triple Win as well as how migrant knowledge can induce change in actors and architectures of the recruitment program. Empirically, the proposed project is based on the analysis of documents and participatory observations together with problem-oriented and narrative interviews.

拟议的项目审查了菲律宾和德国之间的护士“三赢”征聘方案。最近，三赢已成为主要的招聘计划。它典型地代表了移徙政策目前的趋势，即通过有管理的计划最大限度地发挥移徙的潜力。拟议的项目借鉴了过去的工作的见解照顾移民，但超越了管理移民和护士移民的经验重点概念化这些领域通过边境制度研究的透镜。从这个角度来看，边界在征聘过程中具有双重意义。一方面，它们被理解为生产性的，因为移徙应该只通过它们的运作以特定和“期望的”方式发生。另一方面，边界本身只是暂时稳定的，因为护士移徙具有相对的自主权，即使在正式的征聘过程中也是如此。因此，管理和控制这些进程的努力面临着移民自己的议程和做法。 因此，拟议的项目首先分析哪些政治经济发展指导招聘计划三赢：哪些行为者参与、以何种方式以及如何推理护士招聘的必要性？其次，研究了“理想移民”是如何通过三赢机制构建的，以及这一机制如何包含特定的主体化过程。在有管理的移民项目中，移民被配置为需求劳动力的承载者，从而影响他们的传记。第三，它探讨了移民是如何能够抵制和颠覆三赢内的质问和要求，以及移民知识如何能够引起演员和招聘计划的架构的变化。从经验上讲，拟议的项目是基于对文件和参与性意见的分析，以及面向问题的叙述式访谈。
