ABSTRACT

Migration, a phenomenon that involves directly around 200 million peopleworldwide, and governance in the global realm are no longer isolated issues because of the fact that governance has always been seen as services that governments provide in an efficient manner to the governed. The persistent governance-migration gap has resulted inpoor migration management at both national and international levels. This paper argues that the significance of migration governance at policy level is somewhat offset by the paucity of pertinent evidences of research. This paper attemptsto conceptualizethe relationship between global migration and governanceand the variables of migration governance, to explain the corollaries of migration governance and,lastly, to investigate how governance crises influence migration pattern in South and Southeast Asia.
