European Migration Policy from Amsterdam to Lisbon

Dr. Roderick Parkes

doi:10.5771/9783845226088

Summary

Die EU Asyl- und Migrationspolitik hat seit 1999 eine enorme Weiterentwicklung erfahren. Nichtsdestotrotz ist sie nach wie vor in weiten Teilen restriktiv, illiberal und zeugt nicht von internationaler Solidarität. Mit Beispielen aus der politischen Praxis des letzten Jahrzehnts führt der Autor die Merkmale dieser Politik auf eine Kultur des „responsible policymaking“ der Innenminister zurück – die gerade denjenigen am meisten schadet, für die die Minister sich verantwortlich fühlen: den Bürgern der Europäischen Union.
