Sustainability and EU Migration Law: Tracing the History of a Contemporary Concept:

\"Sustainability and EU Migration Law: Tracing the History of a Contemporary Concept\" by Alezini Loxa explores the emergence of \'sustainable migration\' as a primary objective within the modern European Union migration policy framework. While sustainability has deeply shaped environmental and development discourses since the late 20th century, its rhetorical proliferation into immigration law often remains abstract and poorly understood. This volume bridges a critical scholarly gap by conducting rich archival and legal research to investigate what \'sustainability\' truly means for the legal design of the EU and the preservation of migrants\' rights.\r\nRather than focusing on environmental factors, Loxa’s analysis centers on how economic and social considerations have historically dictated the attribution and limitation of rights inside the European legal order—tracing a timeline from the Treaty of Paris and the Single European Act to the Lisbon Treaty and the recent 2024 New Pact on Migration and Asylum. The book reveals a persistent paradox: EU migration law has consistently prioritized the economic utility of mobile individuals to the internal market, meaning that rights are extended to migrants who actively contribute to growth but restricted for vulnerable, non-mobile, or economically inactive individuals who are perceived as potential fiscal burdens. By exposing these foundational constraints, this text provides a vital blueprint for understanding the exclusionary nature of European immigration politics and offers concrete proposals for a more equitable legal design in the future.
