Conclusions

Abstract

AbstractThis chapter summarises the findings of the book and provides concluding remarks. The summary is supplemented with a table encompassing the whole structure of the EU policy framing process. It revisits how security logics intertwined and influenced each other within the whole EU frame-narrative produced in response to the “migration crisis”, exactly indicating points of convergence and divergence in the securitisation process. It discusses how broadly understood risk, reflected in risk management and resilience, has dominated the EU frame-narrative on the “migration crisis” but at the same time did not eliminate other logics from the framing process. Human security, and “exceptionality” proved to be important elements of securitisation, serving different purposes and stimulating the process in different ways and to different ends.
