Reviews
“EU Asylum Policies challenges the view that a member state agreement on some reallocation mechanism is the key to dealing with the unprecedented inflow of asylum-seekers and refugees. The book is a must read for anyone who seeks a deeper understanding of the EU’s failure to respond to the refugee challenge.” (Tanja A. Börzel, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany)
“In this excellent book Natascha Zaun explains Europe’s elusive quest for a common asylum policy and why—contrary to conventional wisdom—this quest has not led to a “race to the bottom” and the weakening of asylum standards across the EU, even though the current migration crisis has exposed the fatal flaws of the EU refugee regime.” (James F. Hollifield, Southern Methodist University, USA)
“Zaun’s book constitutes one of the best informed and insightful treatments of this important, yet understudied, EU policy area. It will greatly benefit anybody who is interested in better understanding the politics ofasylum in Europe.” (Eiko Thielemann, London School of Economics & Political Science, UK)
