Abstract

This paper examines the repercussions of the 2015 European migrant/refugee crisis, which culminated with the 2018 dispute between Italy and France. It is concerned with the Dublin Regulation and the New Pact on Asylum and Migration, which are critical to the division and consequent polarizations across the EU. The Member States’ failure to show solidarity and agree to share the burden in relation to the distribution of immigrants and asylum seekers has brought the European integrationist project into question. In addition to considering the general theoretical explanations, the paper also looks into the African-origin migration/displacement as a proper trigger of widespread disagreements among European governments. The deliberate and systematic impoverishment of the local inhabitants – largely through the use of the French Treasury tied Communauté Financière Africaine (CFA) franc – exposes the neo-colonial nature of the current practices and thus jeopardizes all those discourses and policy initiatives focused on the provision of peace and stability.

“欧洲堡垒”还有别的选择吗?欧盟成员国之间的团结和国家利益
本文考察了2015年欧洲移民/难民危机的影响,这场危机在2018年意大利和法国之间的争端中达到高潮。它涉及《都柏林条例》和《庇护与移民新公约》,它们对整个欧盟的分裂和随后的两极分化至关重要。各会员国没有表现出团结一致,也没有同意分担分配移民和寻求庇护者的负担,这使欧洲一体化项目受到质疑。除了考虑一般的理论解释外,本文还研究了非洲裔移民/流离失所作为欧洲政府之间广泛分歧的适当触发因素。故意和有系统地使当地居民陷入贫困- -主要是通过使用与法国财政部挂钩的非洲金融共同体法郎- -暴露了当前做法的新殖民主义性质,从而危及所有那些以提供和平与稳定为重点的言论和政策倡议。

期刊介绍: The Eastern Journal of European Studies (EJES) seeks to provide a forum for multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary dialogue between ideas, and a framework for theoretical and empirical analyses covering major topics in European studies: European history, politics, European economy and European policies, EU community law, European culture and society. EJES encourages studies focusing on Central and Eastern Europe (including Eastern Neighbourhood) in order to better understand its transformations induced by the integration process and to address its specific challenges by supporting scientific debates on the general European theory and practice. Furthermore, the editorial board regularly invites distinguished guest editors to coordinate thematic issues.
