The notion of vulnerability is gaining traction in EU border protection. On the one hand, concept refers to vulnerable migrants and their affectedness by insecurity violence. other, it indicates susceptibility borders irregular crossings cross-border crime. Both forms are assessed through dedicated procedures under umbrella European Border Coast Guard Agency Frontex. To make sense these seemingly contradictory conceptual practical uses vulnerability, we draw on feminist postcolonial scholarship security studies political geography.

This article explores how the European Union's (EU) externalization of migration policies affects democratization in Morocco, drawing on perspectives local stakeholders, including government officials, civil society actors, and frontline bureaucrats. While EU frames its partnership with Morocco as grounded shared normative values, findings show that (control) priorities often take precedence over democratic reforms. Using a multilevel theoretical framework combines structural factors (linkage, leverage, organizational power) agency domestic actors (gatekeeper elites street-level bureaucrats), analysis identifies three key dynamics: prioritization control progress, consolidation Morocco's authoritarian power through bargain, marginalization migrants, intensifying their repression curtailing capacity to advocate for change. Based qualitative fieldwork, this study highlights these redistribute resources ways bolster autocratic structures hinder reform. By focusing lived experiences sheds light EU's approach can inadvertently undermine Morocco.

The questionable effectiveness this policy its disastrous, often deadly consequences for people move have been studied extensively. political project closing racially stigmatized has serious not only outsiders who want get in, but also internal organization society that is responsible governing those borders. Taken together, these social normative constitute what we call “internalization borders.” Borders reach out far into felt would-be in places where they stuck. Societies Global North, too, being adversely affected harmed restrictive border regimes their internalizing effects. Yet, unlike “externalization” borders, “internalization” so researched systematically. To address gap, Introduction proposes a conceptual framework how study internalization. other articles Forum will offer diverse case studies dark side internalization as well ways countering it.
