Analysis: Redeploying EU Asylum Policy: A Way Out of the Governance Quagmire
Analysis
Seeking for a "fresh start", the European Commission is working on a new Pact on Migration and Asylum. Among other issues, the future of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) is at stake. For a genuine "fresh start" in asylum policy, our Charlemagne Prize Fellow 2019/2020 Marie Walter-Franke, who works at the Jacques Delors Centre in Berlin, suggests a redeployment approach to address the CEAS’s deficiencies. A redeployment approach would source complementary solutions in related policy areas and, where appropriate, redistribute responsibilities horizontally and vertically. This Policy Paper applies redeployment to two areas critical to crisis management: a humanitarian approach to large arrivals and a sustainable reception policy.
