Description

The course concentrates on the most important aspects of the European refugees, migration and justice policy. It will deal with all relevant facts from both a statistical and historical perspective, substantive law/procedures (asylum policy), labour migration and border control management (immigration policy), and family reunification and long term residents (integration policy). Future developments in the policy areas (the Lisbon Treaty) will also be discussed.

course objectives

The aim of the course is to provide students with an understanding of the structure, the functioning and the prospects of the common EU asylum and migration policy. This policy will be studied within the context of the area of freedom, security and justice. We will focus on immigration policy, on asylum policy and we will also examine the legal instruments. Part of the course will entail a case-study of an EU directive.
