最近的庇护危机凸显了欧洲庇护政策的不足。现有的庇护制度鼓励移民进行危险的海上或陆上过境，以获得不确定的难民身份，这种制度效率低下，目标不明确，缺乏公众支持。从长远来看，它应该被一项实质性的难民重新安置联合方案所取代，这将帮助那些最需要保护的人，消除难民面临的危险，并将得到更广泛的公众支持。对关键事实和数据的分析包括庇护申请的决定因素和公众舆论的趋势。有鉴于此，我评估了改革的三个要素的可行性：首先，实施更严格的边境管制，以减少未经授权的入境；第二，促进第一庇护国难民的直接安置；第三，通过加强目的地国之间的负担分担，扩大收容难民的能力。
The recent asylum crisis has highlighted the inadequacies of European asylum policies. The existing asylum system, which encourages migrants to make hazardous maritime or overland crossings to gain access to an uncertain prospect of obtaining refugee status, is inefficient, poorly targeted and lacks public support. In the long run it should be replaced by a substantial joint programme of refugee resettlement that would help those most in need of protection, that would eliminate the risks to refugees, and that would command more widespread public support. Analysis of key facts and data includes the determinants of asylum applications and trends in public opinion. In this light I evaluate the feasibility of three elements for reform: first, implementing tougher border controls to reduce unauthorised entry; second, promoting direct resettlement of refugees from countries of first asylum; and third, expanding refugee-hosting capacity through enhanced burden-sharing among destination countries.
