Description

In the text, the author analyses the processes by which the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEECs) are being gradually incorporated into a restrictive refugee regime established among the EU member states, in which the CEECs serve as "gate-keepers" for refugees and immigrants heading towards Eastern Europe. At a time when many transition countries are trying to enter the EU, the author highlights the CEECs' consent to adapt to Western European policies aimed at fighting illegal immigration and reducing the numbers of asylum seekers as a political bargain, in exchange for future membership in the EU. She also argues that the regime undermines the values of international refugee protection and diffuses states' responsibilities by establishing a system of negative redistribution for the handling of asylum claims. "Safe Third Countries" highlights the complex entanglement of domestic policies, European integration and international relations.
