Over States and Migration: The Human Movement Podcast

This podcast draws on new research to unpack the forces shaping migration flows and the political conflicts surrounding them—from policies and refugee crises to workforce dynamics and integration. Dr. Comte hosts world-class thinkers, policymakers, and innovators to tackle the big questions of our time: Does mobility drive prosperity or conflicts? How do states manage human movement? What’s next for a world on the move? Dr. Emmanuel Comte is a historian of human movement who has lived and worked as a researcher in nine countries and global metropoles from San Francisco to Cyprus.

#21 Inside Cyprus: How Migration and Geopolitics Collide on a Divided Island

Get the enhanced episode transcript here 👉🏻 https://www.emmanuel-comte.eu/product/enhanced-transcript-21/. In this episode of States and Migration: The Human Movement Podcast, Emmanuel Comte speaks with Nicos Nouris, former Minister of Interior of Cyprus, to examine the country’s response to the ongoing migration crisis in Cyprus. Nouris provides a firsthand account of how Cyprus has managed irregular migration routes, addressed rising criminal networks, and confronted structural challenges posed by Schengen Area exclusion. The discussion explores the role of the Green Line in Cyprus—a de facto internal EU border—through which the majority of irregular arrivals occur, and considers the broader geopolitical implications of Turkey–EU relations, including alleged settlement strategies and cross-border trafficking. This revealing conversation offers rare insights into how migration, sovereignty, and European integration collide on a divided island at the crossroads of three continents.   This episode was edited by Andriana Lagoudes and has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Grant Agreement No 101034403.

#20 Pax Germanica and Human Movement in Europe

Get the enhanced episode transcript here 👉🏻 https://www.emmanuel-comte.eu/product/enhanced-transcript-20/ This episode of States and Migration delves into Discussing Pax Germanica, a new volume that reinterprets European integration through the lens of German influence. Dr. Emmanuel Comte presents the central argument discussed in the book: Germany’s historical legacies and political clout have profoundly shaped the structures of the European Union, particularly its approach to mobility and sovereignty. A highlight is Caroline de Gruyter’s chapter, which draws striking parallels between the Habsburg Empire and today’s EU, underscoring the dangers of geopolitical overreach in both political systems. The episode concludes with a call to rethink European security in light of Europe’s unique historical identity.

#19 Understanding Anti-Immigration Riots: A Conversation with Randall Hansen

Get the enhanced episode transcript here 👉🏻 https://www.emmanuel-comte.eu/product/enhanced-transcript-19/ In this episode of States and Migration in Europe, host Dr Emmanuel Comte sits down with Professor Randall Hansen, author of the recent book War, Work, and Want: How the OPEC Oil Crisis Caused Mass Migration and Revolution (OUP, 2023), to unravel the layers of anti-immigration riots in the UK, including the intense unrest of last summer. Through a historical lens, they explore the roots of anti-immigrant sentiments and discuss whether Britain has a unique approach to immigration. Using examples from the past, they also delve into the question of racism—whether it is a cause of these conflicts or a symptom of deeper issues.

Get the enhanced episode transcript 👉🏻 https://www.emmanuel-comte.eu/product/enhanced-transcript-17/ In this episode with Dr Julija Sardelic, a leading voice in Romani studies, we unravel the complexities facing the Roma in Europe – a group caught between its right to free movement and the realities of its marginalisation. From exploring state policies that perpetuate exclusion to confronting the limits of the EU’s freedom of movement, this episode offers a deeper look into Roma experiences. Dr Sardelic’s insights, enriched by personal stories and current trends, challenge us to rethink citizenship, belonging, and the essence of inclusion in Europe. Tune in for a thought-provoking journey that bridges academic expertise with the lived realities of the Roma, sparking a crucial dialogue on rights, identity, and the future of Europe’s most marginalised group.
