Ludger Pries explores the important moral, social and political challenge facing Europe and the international community: the protection of refugees as one of the most vulnerable groups on the planet. Combining an in-depth analysis of current research, own empirical studies in several European countries, and a critical review of the policies of nation-states as well as international and transnational organizations, the author analyses the 2015 so-called refugee crisis and its continuing impact. Who are the refugees, how and why did they come? Which parts of civil society were actively involved and why? What are the future responsibilities of the state for arriving refugees and their successful integration? This book examines the limitations of structural settings with perspectives on collective actors' behaviour and strategies. Offering a critical view on the historical embedding of the refugee issue, as well as the current and future challenges for Europe, Pries provides an insightful overview of all aspects of the so-called European refugee crisis and its aftermath. Refugees, Civil Society and the State merges perspectives from political science and international relations with international humanitarian law, the sociology of migration and action theory. Scholars, journalists and political actors who want to further understand the ongoing challenge of refugee protection will greatly benefit from the distinguished author's research.

Long description: Das Zusammenleben der Menschen entwickelte sich weniger durch natürliche Selektion als durch kulturelles Lernen und verstehende Kooperation. Wie wir die Herausforderungen von Klimawandel, Pandemien, Genschere und Digitalisierung meistern, hängt von soziokulturellen Innovationen ab. Im Anthropozän werden die äußere und die menschliche Natur immer stärker durch Kultur und Technik geprägt. Allerdings sind die längerfristigen Folgen weder vorauszusehen noch zu kontrollieren. Daher wäre transnational koordinierte verstehende Kooperation in kosmopolitischer Verantwortung notwendig. Das Buch integriert Erkenntnisse der Evolutionsforschung aus unterschiedlichen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen und zeigt in soziologischer Perspektive, wie sich die spezifisch menschlichen Fähigkeiten – insbesondere verstehende Kooperation – entwickelten. Darüber hinaus werden mögliche institutionelle Weiterentwicklungen des menschlichen Zusammenlebens diskutiert. Biographical note: Ludger Pries ist Professor für Soziologie an der Universität Bochum. Er forscht zu Arbeit, Organisation, Migration und Transnationalisierung.

During the 1930s, thousands of social scientists fled the Nazi regime or other totalitarian European regimes, mainly towards the Americas. The New School for Social Research (NSSR) in New York City and El Colegio de México (Colmex) in Mexico City both were built based on receiving exiled academics from Europe. Comparing the founding and first twenty years of these organizations, this book offers a deeper understanding of the corresponding institutional contexts and impacts of emigrated, exiled and refugeed academics. It analyses the ambiguities of scientists’ situations between emigration, return‐migration and transnational life projects and examines the corresponding dynamics of application, adaptation or amalgamation of (travelling) theories and methods these academics brought. Despite its institutional focus, it also deals with the broader context of forced migration of intellectuals and scientists in the second half of the last century in Europe and Latin America. In so doing, the book invites a deeper understanding of the challenges of forced migration for scholars in the 21st century. Ludger Pries is Chair for Sociology at Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany. Pablo Yankelevich is Professor at the Centro de Estudios Históricos of El Colegio de México, México.

This volume analyses civil society as an important factor in the European refugee regime. Based on empirical research, the chapters explore different aspects, structures and forms of civil society engagement during and after 2015. Various institutional, collective and individual activities are examined in order to better understand the related processes of refugees’ movements, reception and integration. Several chapters also explore the historical development of the relationship between a range of actors involved in solidarity movements and care relationships with refugees across different member states. Through the combined analysis of macro-level state and European policies, meso-level organization's activities and micro-level individual behaviour, Refugee Protection and Civil Society in Europe presents a comprehensive exploration of the refugee regime in motion, and will be of interest to scholars and students researching migration, social movements, European institutions and social work.
