The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is experiencing a period of remarkable expansion, assuming an increasingly influential role in the global governance of migration. This comprehensive collection, assembled by a team of esteemed experts in international law and international relations, offers a fresh perspective on IOM's growth. By examining IOM as an international organization (IO), the book delves into the practices, obligations, and accountability of this powerful but contentious entity, shedding light on both IOM itself and the broader challenges surrounding IO accountability.

The contributions in this book explore various key areas of IOM's operations, including its crucial role in humanitarian emergencies, internal displacement, data collection, ethical labor recruitment, and migrant detention. These under-researched topics provide valuable insights into the organization's activities and shed light on the complex challenges it faces.

Through a rigorous combination of empirical evidence and careful normative analysis, the book offers recommendations for reforms that are grounded in empirical findings and aligned with ethical principles. These recommendations are of utmost importance to all individuals and organizations interested in the obligations and accountability of international organizations, particularly in the field of migration.

This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core, ensuring widespread access to its valuable insights and scholarship. As the world grapples with the complexities of migration, this book serves as a vital resource for policymakers, practitioners, researchers, and anyone else seeking to understand the role of international organizations in shaping the migration landscape.
