Dear Deeply Readers,
Welcome to the archives of Refugees Deeply. While we paused regular publication of the site on April 1, 2019, we are happy to serve as an ongoing public resource on refugees and migration. We hope you’ll enjoy the reporting and analysis that was produced by our dedicated community of editors and contributors.
We continue to produce events and special projects while we explore where the on-site journalism goes next. If you’d like to reach us with feedback or ideas for collaboration you can do so at [email protected].
Britain’s vote to leave the E.U. is being widely linked to immigration. As part of our “Brexit Aftermath” series, Alexander Betts, head of Oxford’s Refugee Studies Center, discusses the nuances of the “leave” vote and what lies ahead.
Brexit was powered by fantasies of border control, the Leave campaign playing to fears of too many migrants in the U.K. Lawyer Simon Cox argues that the costs of making those border controls a reality would be unprecedented.
In the first in our series on the aftermath of Brexit, we discuss whether another conversation about immigration is still possible in Europe and beyond.
