This book examines the way in which stateless people and irregular migrants manage their lives inside the European Union. Case studies from an empirically-based project illustrate the everyday realities for non-citizens in four European countries: France, the UK, Estonia and Slovenia.
Statelessness in the European Union draws together original research from over one hundred interviews in Estonia, France, Slovenia and the United Kingdom to provide one of the first comparative accounts of the de facto or de jure stateless populations in the European Union. It blends legal, political and empirical research to examine how non-citizens without secure status, in some cases established undocumented migrants and their descendants, manage their lives in four European Union member states. Normative and legal analyses of the practical meaning of basic human rights are combined with a groundbreaking investigation of the obstacles that prevent people from accessing essential services. Contrasting the situation of Europe's stateless now with that examined by Arendt over fifty years ago, it considers proposals for the future security of Europe's stateless people.

Caroline Sawyer is a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Law, Victoria University, Wellington. A former practising solicitor, she has developed university teaching courses in migration and nationality issues for undergraduates and postgraduates and was also UK Country Expert for the EUI's recent comparative study of access to citizenship in Europe. Brad K. Blitz is Professor of Human and Political Geography at Kingston University, Research Associate in the Department of International Development at the University of Oxford, and Director of the International Observatory on Statelessness.
