The limits of EU border and immigration policy in Gibraltar: effects on the legal situation of Moroccan workers
description
In the European Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) is affected by multiple asymmetries arising from the need for flexibility in the integration strategy with respect to those matters connected with the hard core of State sovereignty. This "variable geometry" has a significant impact on the development of a coherent status for third country nationals through a genuine Common Immigration Policy. The particular situation of Gibraltar is very illustrative in this respect, because here, the specificities of its status both in relation to EU law and international law converge with a differentiated approach to the Schengen acquis, and with an opt-out to the Common Migration Policy. This article discusses some of the disruptions caused by variable integration in the AFSJ, in light of the particular example of the situation of Moroccan workers in Gibraltar, in relation to which this amalgam of legal specificities has resulted in a situation of reduced mobility and isolation from some positive legal developments in the field of the Common Migration Policy

Cette géométrie variable a un impact significatif sur le développement d'un status cohérent pour les ressortissants d'États tiers par le biais d'une véritable politique commune d'immigration. La situation particulière de Gibraltar est très illustrative à cet égard, étant donné que la spécificité de sa situation par rapport au droit de l'Union et au droit international converge avec une approche différenciée vis-à-vis de l'acquis de Schengen et avec un opt-out concernant la politique d'immigration commune. Cet article vise certaines des perturbations causées par l'intégration différenciée dans l'ELSJ à la lumière de l'exemple particulier de la situation des travailleurs marocains à Gibraltar. En effet, cet amalgame de spécificités juridiques a abouti à une situation de mobilité réduite et à l'isolement des évolutions juridiques dans le domaine de la politique commune de l'immigrationEl Espacio de libertad, seguridad y justicia (ELSJ) está afectado por múltiples disimetrías que emanan de la necesidad de flexibilidad en la estrategia de integración con respecto a aquellas materias vinculadas al núcleo duro de la soberanía estatal. Esta situación de geometría variable tiene un impacto muy relevante en la elaboración de una aproximación coherente al estatuto de los nacionales de terceros estados a través de una auténtica política de inmigración común. Las particularidades de la situación de Gibraltar son muy ilustrativas a este respecto, ya que aquí, las especificidades de su estatuto tanto en relación con el derecho de la UE como con el derecho internacional convergen con una aproximación diferenciada al acervo de Schengen y con un opting-out de la política migración común. Este artículo se centra en algunas de las disrupciones causadas por la integración diferenciada en el ELSJ, a la luz del ejemplo particular de la situación de los trabajadores marroquíes en Gibraltar, en relación a los cuales, esta amalgama de especificidades jurídicas ha resultado en una situación de movilidad reducida y de aislamiento de los desarrollos jurídicos favorables en el ámbito de la política de inmigración comúnUniversidad de Cádiz2014text (article)application/pdfhttp://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=4918657(Revista) ISSN 2341-0868Paix et sécurité internationales: revue maroco-espagnole de droit international et relations internationales, ISSN 2341-0868, Nº. 2, 2014, pags. 135-149engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
