Description
The Principality of Liechtenstein is considered a prosperous, stable, and well-organized microstate-embedded in international institutions and closely linked economically with Switzerland and the European Union. But how does such a small state deal with one of the greatest humanitarian challenges of our time-the protection of people fleeing their homes?This book examines how Liechtenstein structures its asylum system, which legal foundations apply, and which contradictions arise from the combination of international obligations and national restraint. It analyzes in detail the constitutional, international law, and administrative framework, highlights the social and political debates within the country, and compares Liechtenstein with other microstates in Europe. The focus is on the critical question of how a state that largely excludes regular migration can - or wants to - fulfill its human rights protection obligations.This book is a fundamental work on asylum policy in small states - and at the same time a contribution to the European discussion on solidarity, responsibility, and human rights in times of limited willingness to accept refugees.Bremen University Press has published over 5,000 specialist books in various languages since 2005.
