A crise dos refugiados: uma análise da política de refúgio da União Europeia e Estados-Membros entre 2009 e 2016

Abstract

This work aims at a descriptive analysis of the refugee policy of the European Union. The analysis follows on from the Treaty of Lisbon, ratified in 2009, and seeks to understand how the refugee flows of the so-called "refugee crisis" have influenced the responses of the European Union and its refuge system. It is understood that the refugee policy of the bloc is shared responsibility, so the Member States have certain differences in their refuge systems that hinder a common response within the bloc for the refugee crisis. In this way, it is sought to analyze the refuge policies of two Member States, notably Germany and Greece, in order to ascertain the individual responses of components of the bloc.
