However, in recent years, IOM has adopted human rights discourse and expressed commitment to human rights and humanitarian standards, including in an extensive set of new institutional policies. This article analyzes this development through the prism of international relations theories on the legitimation of international organizations, particularly through discursive strategies. The contribution is two-fold. First, we trace the evolution of IOM’s human rights discourse and identify key themes in this rhetoric, highlighting its bridging of rights-talk and management-speak; its constitution of particular groups of ‘vulnerable’ migrants IOM then positions itself to assist; and its blending of rights commitments and fledging advocacy efforts with continued deference to states. Second, we provide a fresh account of why IOM has acted this way, considering these developments as part of an institutional legitimation strategy that aims to strengthen IOM’s perceived legitimacy internally and in the eyes of key constituents, particularly states and other international organizations. KEYWORDS: * IOM * legitimacy * legitimation * human rights * discourse Previous article View issue table of contents Next article ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research was funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. We would like to thank all those colleagues who shared their helpful feedback on this article, including our anonymous reviewers. DISCLOSURE STATEMENT No potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s). NOTES 1 For analyses of how IOM’s operations sometimes contradict its human rights discourse, see e.g. Georgi and Schatral Citation2012; Miramond Citation2020; Lecadet Citation2020. On the persistent legal limitations of the IOM Constitution and IOM’s evolving legal obligations, see Chetail Citation2019, Citation2022; Bradley, Costello, and Sherwood Citation2023, forthcoming. 2 The sample included all English-language speeches from 2006–2021 posted to IOM’s global website. 230 of the 403 speeches were delivered by directors general; the remainder were delivered by other senior IOM officials such as the deputy director and representatives to the United Nations. The sample included 33 speeches delivered in 2006; 25 in 2007; 27 in 2008; 38 in 2009; 43 in 2010; 39 in 2011; 27 in 2012; 29 in 2013; 8 in 2014; 39 in 2015; 30 in 2016; 21 in 2017; 6 in 2018; 10 in 2019; 14 in 2020; and 12 in 2021. 3 Our sample included all English-language press releases posted to the IOM global website issued in 2006 (n = 342), 2007 (n = 337), 2016 (n = 901), 2017 (n = 866), and 2021 (n = 177, as of 7 December 2021). This allowed us to observe discursive shifts across this period. Our samples provide insight into headquarters-based, high-level discursive developments and legitimation strategies. In future, it would be instructive to compare this high-level discourse with that of mid-level and field-based officials. 4 For other studies of diverse aspects of IOM’s institutional discourse, see for example Pécoud Citation2015; Thorvaldsdottir and Patz Citation2021; Campillo Carrete and Gasper Citation2011; Green and Pécoud Citation2022. 5 To enable open discussion of sensitive institutional concerns, the interviews have been anonymised. The interview protocol was approved by the McGill University Research Ethics Board, File 119-1015. Key themes from these interviews were identified using a grounded coding process. 6 On this development and the contested meaning of ‘related organization’ status, see Guild and Grant Citation2017; Bradley Citation2021. 7 For legal analyses, see e.g. Guild, Grant, and Groenendijk Citation2017 and Chetail Citation2019, 2022. On broader implications of IOM’s entry into the UN system, see Geiger and Pécoud Citation2020. 8 For exceptions see Hall Citation2016 and Korneev Citation2018. 9 IOM’s adaptation to shifting demands arising from its institutional environment may be understood, in part, in terms of institutional isomorphism whereby coercive, mimetic and normative mechanisms foster homogeneity across organizations in particular fields (DiMaggio and Powell Citation1983; Park Citation2014). 10 Interview, member state official 1, November 2015. 11 Interview, member state official 1. 12 Interview, IOM official 13, November 2015. 13 In attempting to legitimize itself by emphasizing service to states and individuals, IOM is following a general trend in IO legitimation (Dingwerth et al. Citation2019). 14 Interviews, member state officials 4 and 5, December 2016; Interviews, humanitarian actors 8 (NGO) and 9 (UN), December 2016; Interview, humanitarian actor 12 (UN), December 2019. 15 Refugees represent an exception. 16 Interview, IOM officials 3, 4, 5, November 2015. 17 Interview, human rights advocate 5, December 2015. 18 Beyond pragmatic recognition that respect for these norms is essential to fundraising, some suggest members of IOM’s migration and border management teams are also invested in upholding sovereign authority in migration decision-making on principle (Bradley Citation2020). 19 Interview, IOM official 2, November 2015. 20 Interview, member state official 2, December 2016. 21 Interview, member state official 4, December 2016. 22 Interview, member state official 3, December 2016. 23 This may be understood in terms of mimetic institutional isomorphism, as noted above. 24 Interviews, IOM officials 3 and 13; IOM official 16, October 2019; IOM official 17, December 2019; IOM official 21, February 2020. 25 Interview, humanitarian actor 2 (UN), November 2015; Interviews, humanitarian actors 1 (UN), 5 (NGO), 6 (UN), November 2015; Interview, humanitarian actors 7 and 9 (UN), December 2015; Interview, humanitarian actor 11 (UN), November 2019; Interview, human rights advocate 13 (UN), January 2018. 26 Interview, independent expert 8 (former senior UN official), April 2020. 27 Interview, independent expert 6 (former senior UN official), October 2019; Interview, independent expert 8 (former senior UN official), April 2020. 28 Interview, human rights advocate 2, November 2015; Interview, human rights advocate 5; Interviews, human rights advocates 7 and 10, December 2016. 29 Interview, humanitarian actor 10 (UN), September 2019; Interview, humanitarian actor 12 (UN); Interview, humanitarian actor 13 (UN), July 2021. 30 Interviews, humanitarian actor 8 (NGO) and 12 (UN); Interview, member state official 2; Interview, member state official 11, July 2017; Interview, independent expert 8 (former senior UN official). 31 IO mandates are widely understood to extend beyond the formal terms of their constitutive documents (Barnett and Finnemore Citation2004). 32 Interviews, IOM officials 3, 4, 5, 13 and 17; Interview, IOM official 19, January 2020; Interview, IOM official 21, February 2020; Interview, IOM official 22, June 2021. 33 Interview, member state official 5, December 2016. 34 Personal communication, IOM staff member, June 2015; Interview, IOM official 1. 35 Interviews, IOM official 10; Interviews, IOM officials 3, 6, 9, 13, 17, 22. 36 Interviews, IOM officials 10, 13, 17, 22; Interview, IOM official 15, January 2018; Interview, former IOM official 20, January 2020; Interview, human rights advocate 5. 37 For a discussion of related attempts at the Asian Development Bank to merge human rights with sovereignty norms, see Park Citation2014. 38 Interviews, IOM officials 1, 8, 9, 17. 39 Interviews, IOM officials 3, 4, 5, 9, 11, 13. 40 Interviews, IOM officials 6 and 12, November 2015; Interview, IOM official 17.
