The Dublin Regulation determines the responsibility of European States for administrating the requests of asylum seekers from outside the European Union. Once the fingerprints are taken, it is automatically shared with other member states. For decades, these questions have lived exclusively in the realm of science fiction, but as Kevin Davies powerfully reveals in his new book, this is all about to change. This conservative approach to labor migration could be attributed to the center-right ideology of the newspaper. If the decision rejects the claim for asylum, the asylum seeker can appeal the decision. The extent by which policies will benefit or burden the target population depends on how the different policy actors perceive the target population and the position the target population occupies in the society. Found insideA probing and insightful work of reportage, Fractured Lands offers a penetrating portrait of the contemporary Arab world and brings the stunning realities of an unprecedented geopolitical tragedy into crystalline focus. New figures from the German Interior Ministry show that a record number of 1.1 million asylum-seekers arrived in 2015, around five times as much as in 2014. An asylum seeker could be denied entry if he/she is coming from a third country recognized by Germany as safe, Germany is not the country that is supposed to register his/her application, or he/she poses a threat to the general public (Germany Federal Office for Migration and Refugees website). Dowideit, A. The visibility and determination of the migrants (who included Syrian refugees as well as other groups of migrants) and the support provided by advocacy groups and individuals made the move to central Europe unstoppable. European Commission (2015), “More responsibility in managing the refugee crisis: European commission adopts 40 infringement decisions to make European asylum system work”, (Press Release) 23 September 2015. Months earlier, the legal guidelines for the distribution of underage refugees was loosened and measures like the conversion of cash to services were adopted. Resettlement is defined by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) as the process by which recognized refugees are selected and transferred from the first state in which they sought protection (first country of asylum) to a third state which agrees to admit them (UNHCR Resettlement Handbook, 2011). The project The Migrant Files, coordinated by journalists, details the extent of the perennial tragedy in the Mediterranean. Germany reacts to refugees with border control, deterrence through videos of deportation (via Facebook as well), prohibitions against multiple immigration attempts, and changes to the existing laws. Jannis Panagiotidis considers a particular type of migration, co-ethnic migration, where migrants seek admission to a country based on their purported ethnicity or nationality being the same as the country of destination. From Macedonia migrants moved further to Serbia and Hungary, aiming for Germany or other European countries as final destinations (Dockery, 2017a). For example, framing migration as a security issue is a politically driven frame because it frames migration on the basis of the common political ideology (Guo et al., 2012). Differing reports circulate within the media, because not all accounts of refugee numbers are using the same data while government officials are publishing partly contradictory or false statements. For example, one article interviewed the former SPD-chief who is critical of Merkel's open-door policy. Over the course of the year, during which critiques of efficiency and labor structures within the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) do not abate, BAMF becomes a political issue. The Deviants group is powerless and negatively constructed, for example, criminals and drug addicts (Schneider and Ingram, 1993). 603/2013 added a component to Eurodac for law enforcement giving authorities the right to compare fingerprints linked to criminal investigations with those contained in Eurodac. Similar to the preceding act, it aimed to accelerate the asylum application process for certain types of asylum applicants, for example, applicants from safe countries of origin, follow up applicants or applicants without documents. Robert Entman defines framing as the process of selecting “some aspects of a perceived reality and makes them more salient in a communicating text, in such a way as to promote a particular problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation, and/or treatment recommendation.” (Entman, 1993, p. 52). For example, game theory, social choice theory and common pool resource theory are compatible with the Institutional Analysis and Development Framework (Ostrom, 2007). In qualitative media content analysis, the most important issue to consider when sampling is to ensure that the sample includes articles that address the question of the research (Macnamara, 2005). A regulation is a legislative act that applies directly to member states, while a directive is a legislative act that needs to be transposed into the national legislation of each country. When evaluating the impact on refugees, the focus was on the dangerous conditions within the camps where two articles reported on incidents of attacks on refugees by refugees portraying as such refugee camps as danger sites indirectly instigating fear among the readers (Anonymous, 2014) (Anonymous, 2015). The black market for Syrian passports flourishes: Syrians receive asylum more easily, which is why the Syrians themselves, as they cannot obtain legal passports due to the war, resort to this option. 344 0 obj
