The work titled From Humanitarianism to Securitization: The Transformation of European Migration Control through Frontex analyzes how the migration crisis in the Central Mediterranean has been addressed through increasing securitization promoted by the European Union, highlighting the role of the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex). The study stems from the observation that, in recent decades, the rise of armed conflicts, political persecution, and economic crises in African countries has driven forced migration flows toward Europe, resulting in thousands of deaths during crossings. Faced with this scenario, Frontex has significantly expanded its operational, budgetary, and technological responsibilities, adopting advanced surveillance solutions. The work critically investigates how this outsourcing of strategic functions implies the transfer of state responsibilities to other actors, whose profit-driven interests may conflict with the humanitarian principles of migration policy. The research supports the hypothesis that Frontex s operations, by favoring contracts with the private sector, consolidate a market-oriented security logic that intensifies the exclusion and vulnerability of migrants, while simultaneously weakening the commitment to international refugee protection. It concludes that the transformation of migration control into a profitable business compromises transparency, public accountability, and the ethical foundations of the international human rights protection regime.
