Summary
Literature in migration studies has analyzed the deployment of development and humanitarian aid in migration policy, as well as the implication of non-state actors in the operationalization of European migration policy in North Africa. Little attention has been paid to the implementation of such a policy turn on the ground, and to the local configuration of power and governance that it produces. Building on fieldwork and interviews with representatives of donors, NGOs, and international organizations, this chapter investigates European-funded projects providing social assistance to “sub-Saharan” migrants in Morocco. The chapter argues that the use of aid for border control purposes splinters responsibilities over migration governance. In the space left by an “indifferent” Moroccan state, aid agencies become the main implementers of a social and humanitarian policy addressing the presence of Black migrants in the country. The relevance assumed by non-state actors is not only due to the unwavering availability of European funding for border control, but also due to its entanglement with historical patterns of state externalization of care for the poor to non-state actors.
