Migration/border governance takes place in very different settings, particular in terms of the nature and role of states, and of the kind of society in which civil society intervenes. This scholarship raises core issues about non-state actors in migration/asylum governance, but focuses mainly on supra- and intergovernmental organizations rather than on civil society per se. This makes for an ambiguous situation, in which civil society is called upon to help states govern migration, but also to protect migrants from some of the consequences of governments' migration policies.
