Etienne Piguet: Asylum and refugees, rethinking protection

"Asylum is a polarizing issue. The consequences of reception or closure policies are considerable. They put human lives at stake, but also sometimes the harmony of host societies. It's no exaggeration to say that the task of sorting out and dissuading refugees is often left to traffickers, sometimes without scruples, and to the hazards of perilous journeys." In this book, Étienne Piguet lays the foundations for a dispassionate reflection.
