This volume examines the implementation of the Return Directive from the perspective of judicial dialogue. While the role of judges has been widely addressed in European asylum law and EU law more generally, their role in EU return policy has hitherto remained under explored. This volume addresses the interaction and dialogue between domestic judiciaries and European courts in the implementation of European return policy. The book brings together leading authors from various backgrounds, including legal scholars, judges and practitioners. This allows the collection to offer theoretical and practical perspectives on important questions regarding the regulation of irregular migration in Europe, such as: what constitutes inadequate implementation of the Directive and under which conditions can judicial dialogue solve it? How can judges ensure that the right balance is struck between effective return procedures and fundamental rights? Why do we see different patterns of judicial dialogue in the Member States when it comes to particular questions of return policy, for example regarding the use of detention? These questions are more timely than ever given the shifting public discourse on immigration and the growing political backlash against immigration courts. This book will be essential reading for all scholars and practitioners in the fields of immigration law and policy, EU law and public law.

The book is a continuation of analysis started in the Return directive DIALogue - REDIAL project (2014-2016). REDIAL was co-funded by the European Commission (DG Home) and coordinated by the Migration Policy Centre (MPC), in cooperation with the Centre for Judicial Cooperation (CJC) at the European University Institute and the Odysseus Network. The editors would like to express their gratitude to each of the national judges and academic experts who participated in CONTENTION and REDIAL for providing the contributors to this book with invaluable research data in their respective country reports. The volume has benefited enormously from meticulous proof-reading by Paul McDonough, Justin McCann and by Ellen Lefley, which has been made financially possible by Masaryk University, Odysseus Network and the VU Interdisciplinary Centre for European Studies (VICES).
