Migratie staat hoog op de agenda in Thessaloniki. Wordt hier verder gebouwd aan het Fort Europa? Zie het volgende artikel op Indymedia West-Vlaanderen:

http://wvl.indymedia.org/news/2003/06/1784.php

Also have a look at the following article at http://www.noborder.org: this article unfolds a detailed picture of the fast changing migration regime that has been developed by the EU over the last one and a half decades. By summarizing the key finding from an German language booklet ('Die Globalisierung des Migrationsregimes') by the same author, this article provides a comprehensive background for anyone trying to follow the development of European immigration policies
