The
recent short victory of the ‘no’ to mass immigration in Switzerland
raises several questions: How come a country with a successful economy
says no to immigration? What are the implications of this vote beyond
the issue of freedom of movement within the European Union? These were
the questions posed by Professor Vincent Chetail, Director of the Global
Migration Centre and Professor of Public International Law at the
Graduate Institute Geneva, on 27 February 2014 at the EUI during his
lecture on “The Swiss vote against mass immigration, freedom of movement
and international law: a preliminary assessment”.
