Abstract
This chapter analyses forms and types of governance of migration and mobilities at global level, by which is meant three things. The first is what many people would have in mind when hearing the words “global governance”: processes or frameworks that could bind states and other actors through the creation and enforcement of new rules. The chapter also shows that there are two other ways of detecting forms of global governance of migration and mobilities. One is efforts to build governing capacity in line with global norms and standards. The second is changing behaviours through persuasion to accord with global norms and standards. This chapter identifies a “governance continuum” from the local to the global with powerful linkages and connections within which it is important to specify the ideas about migrants, migration and mobile people that animate policies and practices.
