Dr. Martin Geiger comes to Carleton University as a Government of Canada Banting Fellow. His research interests include migration and integration in Europe, justice and home affairs and migration control, Europeanisation as externalisation and exterritorialisation, and intergovernmental organizations in migration governance. His current research, generously supported by a prestigious fellowship of the Canadian Government, focuses on the industries developing and marketing ITs for managing human cross-border mobility. It scrutinizes the effects of new technologies on the management of mobility and international relations and by doing this, provides recommendations of how adverse effects and democratic concerns can be (better) addressed and mitigated.
