Boldizsár Nagy: Passports, visas: coats of arms of a feudalistic mindset

Boldizsár Nagy introduces the topic of passports and visas in the context of mobility and current events in the world. What is the power passports hold? Why do governments need to know who is on the state’s territory? Why can some people get visas and others not? What are the rights of people when it comes to mobility? These are the notions Nagy leads you through in his lecture on passports and visas.

This lecture was part of the 9th EMN Educational Seminar on Migration 2023 entitled "Protection of Migrants in Vulnerable Situations". All podcasts and presentations from the seminar are available at www.emnseminar.sk.

The seminar is organised by the International Organization for Migration Slovakia as the coordinator of the Slovak EMN National Contact Point. This activity is funded by the European Union and co-funded by the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic.
