Abstract

This article looks at the number of migrants who die while trying to reach Europe. It includes a methodological paragraph on how more precise data about this phenomenon can be collected; this paragraph is based on field work on Southern Sicily in November 2011. Furthermore, it analyses how a mainstream approach to human rights would assess the phenomenon, and explores in which ways human rights analysis would have to be amended in order to make the human rights normative framework relevant for border deaths.
