DEVELOPMENT OF THE EU ASYLUM POLICY. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2009, Pages: 112
Although refugee protection constitutes an important
component of
human right committments of states, it has often been
subordinated to the
migration and security concerns of states. In the
face of huge migratory pressures at their doors,
wealthy western states each day are devising new
mecanisms and legislations to strenghten the barriers
against migrants. However this exclusionary attitude
also kept against asylum seekers, which is against
both the spirit of world refugee protection system
and the loud human right committments of these
states. The EU has been a crucial platform for
institutionalization of this
externalizing tendency against refugees with serious
implications for the general perception and future of
refugee protection regime. This study, therefore
examines the scope and impact of the access
prevention tendencies in the development of EU asylum
policy
until 2004. In this respect, the study extensively
deals with the pre-entry and the post-entry access
prevention measures which act to serve to preventing
the access of refugees to the EU territories. The
analysis should be useful for refugees rights related
human rights institutions and researchers.
