EU Immigration and Asylum Law

A Commentary

Edited by Hailbronner and Thym

National rules on immigration and asylum have been transformed in recent years. EU Directives and Regulations, including the relevant case law of the European Court of Justice, have become ever more important – for those working in ministries, immigration authorities, national courts, academia, non-governmental organisations and also for those who are practising lawyers. The fundamentally revised and amended second edition of this book focuses on core legislation, including the Asylum Qualification Directive, the Asylum Procedure and Reception Directives, the Dublin III Regulation, the Border Code, Visa and Frontex Regulations, the Family Reunion Directive, the Blue Card Directive, the Long Term Residents' Directive and the Return Directive.
