The Center for Migration Studies (CMS) announces a new online, peer-reviewed, public policy publication titled the Journal on Migration and Human Security (“the Journal”). The Journal’s theme of “human security” is meant to evoke the widely shared goals of creating secure and sustaining conditions in migrant sending communities; promoting safe, legal migration options; and developing immigration and integration policies that benefit receiving communities and allow newcomers to lead productive, secure lives.
The Journal seeks to publish rigorous and well-argued papers that can significantly inform and contribute to the US and international policy debates on migration. It particularly welcomes papers that:
•Address timely migration-related “human security” issues,
broadly defined;
•Cover issues and research that receive insufficient
attention in immigration policy circles;
•Provide new information, ideas, non-traditional
perspectives, comparative scholarship, or multi-
disciplinary analysis; and
•Articulate areas of agreement and disagreement on
particular issues, as well as gaps in knowledge.
