  title = {The EU{\textquoteright}s Approach to Irregular Migration in the Contemporary Fragile Context: An Effective Model?},
  abstract = {<p>This article analyzes the EU{\textquoteright}s approach to addressing irregular migration against the background of a deteriorating security environment and other challenges such as climate change. It argues that loopholes and flaws, both within and between member states, create incentives for the instrumentalization of migration by third countries and political actors. At the same time, although migrant movements caused by climate change are generally internal and temporary, the lack of a commonly accepted term for climate migration and climate migrants hinders the integration of climate-induced migration in EU migration policies, especially when it occurs alongside armed conflicts.</p>},
