This webinar examines the complexities of irregular migration governance in the Netherlands through a qualitative analysis of 25 years of policy trends supplemented with expert interviews. The study involves the policy areas of work, healthcare, housing, juridical assistance, and financial services. It shows how the Dutch welfare state has become a tool for migration control, normalizing exclusionary practices to such an extent that the exclusion of irregular migrants has now become the default. While diving deeper into this normalization of exclusion, it is shown that additional layers of exclusion are created for irregular migrants in the Netherlands. The exclusionary trend in the Netherlands towards irregular migrants namely reflects broader neoliberal shifts in welfare policies, marginalizing irregular migrants and complicating their access to essential services and legal protections, ultimately increasing their vulnerability.
