While cities, as pivotal actors in an urbanizing world, have assumed increasing responsibility for managing migration, they lack formal channels to influence international policies that profoundly impact local realities. In response, the author presents a compelling exploration through ten case studies spanning diverse geographies. Through these case studies, the author reveals how local governments navigate this paradox by engaging in global-level interactions with national and international actors, thus contributing to the emergence of cities as significant players in global migration governance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCities leverage this newfound role to shape migration narratives, elevate local concerns to the global stage, and advocate for their inclusion in decision-making processes. By advancing the analysis of cities as global-level actors, the author introduces role theory to migration studies, offering valuable insights. Furthermore, the author presents a series of timely policy recommendations aimed at strengthening the institutionalization of city diplomacy in global migration governance. This book appeals to scholars of migration studies, urban studies, international relations, and practitioners engaged in multi-level migration governance, city diplomacy, and multi-stakeholder partnerships.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 346g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 148 x 209 x 21 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783658396015\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Janina Sturner-Siovitz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44295222984954,"sku":"9783658396015","price":85.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_31425218-7e9b-4ed1-b298-34c8eb47b89c.jpg?v=1687522392","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/curtain-up-city-diplomacy-in-global-migration-governance-9783658396015","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
