There is currently no European institution implementing these directives or ensuring that criteria are uniformly applied – instead considerable discretion remains at national level, with the result that where one makes one’s claim matters enormously, a fact ignored by the Dublin regulation.

Dublino II ed Eurodac: esame delle conseguenze (in)attese

Di conseguenza, gli Stati membri si rifiutano di affrontare la questione del numero crescente di persone intrappolate tra Eurodac e Dublino II. Tra questi, le migliaia di persone che transitano attraverso la Grecia e la Spagna, dove in teoria dovrebbero presentare domanda di asilo, ma dove in realtŕ hanno scarse possibilitŕ di presentare la richiesta, quasi nessuna chance che la stessa venga esaminata in modo adeguato e ancor meno che lo status di rifugiato venga loro concesso. Questo articolo affronta due questioni. Si argomenterŕ che la preoccupazione degli Stati membri consiste di fatto nel ridurre al minimo il numero delle persone in grado di richiedere asilo, piuttosto che nell'assicurare l'accesso a questo status a tutti coloro che potrebbero averne i requisiti;...

Political Asylum in Germany and Britain

Migration and Mobility, 2001

The differences between them are immense, varied and not to be underestimated, and include their political structures and their geopolitical positions. Elsewhere I have gone into these differences in greater detail.1 However, in spite of these differences, especially in terms of the number of asylum seekers arriving in each country, both countries simultaneously introduced legislation designed to deal with a phenomenon constructed by both states as a problem – the number of asylum seekers. The argument presented here is that it is those characteristics that the two states have in common that are most important for asylum policy – that they are states, that they are liberal representative democracies, that they are welfare states and that they are nation states.

Présentation de l’ANR LIMINAL :Le programme LIMINAL porté par l’INALCO et financé par l’Agence Nationale de la Recherche traite des interactions et médiations langagières et culturelles entre acteurs en situation de crise migratoire et humanitaire, telle que celle-ci se développe en France depuis 2015 (création de camps et campements d’ampleur, développement de centres d’accueil). Il mobilise des chercheurs de différentes disciplines en SHS (linguistique et sociolinguistique, sémiotique, anthropologie, sociologie, études sur la migration, psychologie) pour mener conjointement en cinq langues (urdu, dari, farsi, amharique, arabe) des études de terrain sur les pratiques de médiation linguistique et interculturelle dans des camps et des lieux d’accueil et d’hébergement diversifiés, formels et informels, auprès d’une pluralité d’acteurs sociaux (institutionnels, associatifs, populations migrantes). Son objectif scientifique est d’étudier les enjeux théoriques et pratiques des stratégies d’interaction et de médiation, les malentendus ou insuffisances (usages inappropriés, mécompréhensions interculturelles, situations bloquées, émotions dysphoriques) et de proposer, à terme, des outils à destination de la recherche, des acteurs sociaux et des services publics (glossaires lexico-terminologiques multilingues, documentations textuelles et audiovisuelles, portail web, outils pédagogiques). Ce programme de recherche offrira l’opportunité de valoriser compétences linguistiques, dispositifs de solidarité, co-actions ; de circonscrire les difficultés ; d’apporter le concours d’une recherche plurilingue et pluridisciplinaire à des éléments de formation et de documentation destinés à un large public (recherche, associatif, ONG, travailleurs sociaux, bénévoles et exilés).

The conference was organized by Gabriella Lazaridis (University of Leicester) and the Hellenic Institute of Migration (IMEPO), which also funded the conference. The editor would like to thank Vassiliki Papakosta from IMEPO, and Jane Russell, Sally Marsden, Carol Adjai and Thomas Gill from the University of Leicester, whose efforts were crucial to the planning and smooth running of the conference. At the Leicester end, where the editing of the book took place, the editor is most grateful to Nick James for his excellent editorial assistance and for indexing the book so efficiently. I am also grateful for Lianne Sherlock and Neil Jordan's valuable support. Finally the editor would like to thank the contributors for their willingness to revise their chapters against a tight schedule and to accept our editorial input with such good grace.
