Introduction Most high-income countries make a strict distinction in their immigration poli-cies between refugees and those deemed to be labor migrants.

Trade preferences provide a potential policy tool for supporting refugee employment in countries of first asylum.

The book looks at the potential use of the EU's external financial instruments to address the root causes of migration and refugee inflows.

The authors call on G20 leaders to extend more predictable and substantial support to lowand- middle-income countries that host refugees, in recognition of the global public good that these countries provide.

How can the responsibility for refugees be distributed more fairly—globally and within the EU? And how can we curb irregular migration while expanding legal immigration to the benefit of all concerned?
