The book provides an overview and descriptive analysis of how selected countries - Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Norway, UK and Turkey- have responded to the massive inflow of refugees, as well as the policy practices they have developed concerning refugee students’ integration into higher education. Seeking to encourage sustainable policy responses and national frameworks, this report highlights these selected countries’ procedures to ensure access to higher education and also approaches to recognize foreign qualifications. It also examines particular challenges in the case of each country. The report limits its scope exclusively to refugee students, excluding practices developed for refugee academics/university staff. The book offers a contribution to the existing literature on educational policy for refugees and encourages higher education institutions to remember their central role as a driving force for social development and integration.
This book analyzes the externalization of the EU’s immigration and asylum practices towards non-member transit countries and the consequences of this process. Selected policy areas of externalization (border management, visa policy, readmission agreements and asylum policy) are applied to Turkey and Morocco as two main migration transit countries within two different institutional cooperation mechanisms: Turkey as an EU candidate country within the EU’s enlargement policy; Morocco without membership prospect within the EU’s neighborhood policy. Yıldız applies theoretical debates and critically compares the rhetoric in policy papers with practice in the field. This volume not only contributes to the issue of the external dimension of EU immigration policy by incorporating transit countries into the debate, but also expands upon our understanding of the EU’s contested external governance paradigm. It will be of use to students, scholars, and policy makers in the field of European studies, migration and asylum studies, international relations, and political science.
The book looks in detail at the economic conditions of Muslim countries specifically, offering a thorough political analysis at the same time. It focuses on a broad range of economic factors and takes into consideration reports such as the World Development Index. It explores striking differences and similarities among carefully chosen Muslim countries. Mainly because of its broad use of different disciplines, it will be of interest to students of political science, economics and history.
The European Union in the 21st Century takes a fresh look at a complex and ever-changing organization by examining its pursuit of two very different objectives: power (security and political weight) and plenty (economic growth and social welfare). Nikolaos Zahariadis aims to help students understand these two objectives and how the tension between them affects different issue areas, illuminating how each objective represents a different perspective on what the EU is and what it does. The book also introduces students to the systematic thinking that political scientists employ to see the connections between policies, institutions, and actors. By unpacking the various perspectives, students will gain greater insight into how policymakers think and why EU leaders make the kinds of decisions they do.
Since the past few years, the considerable influx of refugees to the EU has led to a profound reconceptualisation of its immigration control strategy, with emphasis on the co-option of new partners, such as the private sector or third countries, and the prevention of movement through extraterritorial controls. The externalisation of immigration control has also been increasingly linked with the securitisation and criminalisation of asylum, particularly in the form of tackling human smuggling to which those in need usually resort to. This edited volume that comprises of contributions by both legal scholars and practitioners, provides a multi-faceted overview of these legal responses and examines their implications from a human rights and rule of law perspective.
Since Turkey’s EU accession has arguably come to a halt with the freezing of several negotiation chapters in 2005, Turkey and the European Union have been through many internal and global crises. As a result of these crises, while the priorities of both parties have changed, EU–Turkey relations advance still at a snail’s pace rather than totally breaking down. EU/Turkey Relations in the Shadows of Crisis: A Break-Up or Revival? aims to challenge the future of the relations between the European Union and Turkey by discussing the impact of the crises on not only the parties involved but also on their relations by displaying both imperfections in the EU/Turkey association and the future cooperation/accession alternatives between the European Union and Turkey.
Das europäische Migrationsmanagement nutzt Neo-Refoulement-Praxen, um Migrant*innen weit vor der europäischen Grenze zu stoppen und ihnen den Zugang zur europäischen Gerichtsbarkeit zu verwehren. Zur Umsetzung dieses Vorgehens bedient sich die EU der Internationalen Organisation für Migration. Nele Austermann deckt auf, wie fehlende Jurisdiktion, mangelnde völkerrechtliche Verantwortlichkeit internationaler Organisationen und eine eingeschränkte Menschenrechtsbindung hierbei zu einer Entsubjektivierung von Migrant*innen führen. Mit dem Konzept der internationalen öffentlichen Gewalt zeigt sie einen Weg auf, wie eine Rückführung in komplexitätsadäquate rechtliche Strukturen möglich ist.
Günümüzde dünya nüfusunun büyük çoğunluğu doğduğu ülkede yaşamakla birlikte, yaşamlarının bir bölümünü çalışmak, eğitim görmek ve hatta emekliliğini geçirmek için farklı bir ülkeye yerleşenlerin sayısı hızla artmaktadır. Birleşmiş Milletler Uluslararası Göç Verileri’ne göre uluslararası göçmenlerin sayısı 2000 yılından bu yana %49’luk artışla 258 milyona yükselmiştir. Bu durum, üç büyük kıtanın kesişim noktasında yer alan ülkemiz için günümüzde de güncelliğini koruyan ve çözülmesi gereken öncelikli sorunların başında gelmektedir. Göç verileri incelendiğinde ülkemizin tarih boyunca kitlesel göç akımlarının...
Çağdaş edebiyatımızın usta kalemi Pınar Kür'ün Türkçenin ilk postmodern romanlarından biri sayılan yapıtı Bir Cinayet Romanı uzun yıllar sonra yeniden Can Yayınları’nda. Yaşamak, yaşatmak, yaratmak, yok etmek, yazmak, yalan atmak arasındaki bağlantılar, ilişkiler, çelişkiler... Pınar Kür, bu romanı boyunca bu sorular ve sözcüklerle oynayarak yaşam-sanat karşıtlığına yeni boyutlar getiriyor. Dilin olanaklarını alabildiğine zorlayarak neredeyse matematiksel bir anlatım yaratıyor. “Bir cinayet olayı ne zaman başlar? Öldürme düşüncesi aklınıza düştüğünde mi? Öldürme düşüncesini hemen reddedeceğinize ya da kısa bir süre sonra unutacağınıza, yavaş yavaş geliştirmeye koyulduğunuzda mı? Öldürme düşüncesi, öldürme kararına dönüştüğünde mi? Öldürme kararı uygulandığında mı?”
In a relatively short period of time, the European Project has faced an incredibly diverse spectrum of crises and challenges. From the Eurozone crisis to the sovereign debt crisis, and from the migration crisis to Brexit, the European Union has found itself confronted with unprecedented internal and external threats and pressures. The Global Strategy of 2016 and the Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO) in the field of defence of 2017 are just two of the new strategies and policies to which it has turned. Whether the Franco-German engine will succeed in surpassing this critical moment and trigger a deep reform of the European Union remains to be seen. Raising its level of strategic ambiti...
