Course Outline

The international community as a whole and in particular the European Union, its institutions and its Member States have a role to play in addressing global migration challenges and refugee crises, including the crisis currently affecting the EU. In this EU migrant and refugee crisis, Germany has been the most sought-after final destination.

This course provides an analysis of both the international and European regime of refugee protection. The module is divided into two parts. The first part covers the international legal framework for refugee protection. The course explores the basic provisions of the 1951 Refugee Convention and 1967 Protocol regarding the definition of refugee, the exclusion, cessation and ending of refugee status, the principle of non-refoulement, the required standards of treatment of refugees as well as the institutions tasked with overseeing the implementation of these instruments. Then, the course examines the refugee protection under international human rights law (European Convention of Human Rights).

The second part of the course analyzes the development of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) by the European Union. Within this framework, the course focuses on the issue of which Member State is responsible for examining the asylum claim (Dublin III Regulation), on the eligibility for protection (Qualification Directive), on the rules for the procedure for the examination of asylum claims (Procedures Directive) and on the conditions and rights applicable for asylum seekers pending the asylum procedure (Reception Conditions Directive).

Finally, the course provides- as an excursus- an overview of the right to asylum according to Article 16a of the German Basic Law (Grundgesetz).
