Flucht und Asyl - internationale und österreichische Perspektiven

Viac o knihe

Flight and asylum have long dominated public debates in Europe. Right-wing populist parties have gained significance in many countries. An agreement that will allow the European Union to assume its responsibility towards worldwide refugee movements seems out of reach. The present volume contributes to the differentiation of these debates. On the one hand, it reconsiders flight and asylum from international and historical perspectives as well as from the point of view of those affected by these developments. On the other hand, it presents empirical results on the political and civil response to the refugees besides their integration into the labour market and the opportunities and limits of their social and cultural participation.
