Citizenship of the European Union

Document A, Charles Santiago, Chair of Asean Parliament for Human Rights, views that the Rohingya refugee crisis issue is no longer a Burma issue, but a regional issue, and claims that the problem had started with the Burma government refusing to give citizenship to the Rohingya, so the long-term strategy would be for ASEAN to pressurize Burma to make changes to the lives of the Rohingya, while the short-term strategy will only be for the countries, which are mainly Thailand, Malaysia and…

The European refugee crisis is the first migration crisis of the 21st century. One of the primary causes why Europe is dealing with a staggering influx of migrants is due to the increase of violence in the refugee’s countries. Ever since the division of the Ottoman Empire, conflicts in the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa have become common. A certain hatred and rivalry lives and thrives in this region of the world and can clearly be felt throughout the differences among their populations and…

Europeanization refers to adoption and spreading of European cultures, ideas, policies and economies. It could also refer to the institutionalization of European symbols and icons. European identity formation and citizenship building are being attained through Europeanization. One issue related to this process is identifying whether there really is Europe. There is no document directly stating what Europe is and which states are parts of it. Not knowing the boundaries and not having a concrete…

Kingdom voted in favor for their departure from the European Union. For the past forty years, the United Kingdom has been a member of this peaceful union which is comprised of twenty-seven other European countries. The union enacts Article 50, a law that allows these countries to exit the union at will. In the events that have followed the in-favor vote to depart from the EU, little action has taken place. The nations that form the European Union have made strong contributions to the global…

immigration system in the United States. The Obama Administration is focusing on controlling immigrants at the border by increasing security, focusing on the criminal element, deporting only those that have committed a felony and working towards a earned citizenship (Obama Administration,…

The migration system with the European Union is quite a simple arrangement; Treaties, Directives and Regulations are put into place for European Union (EU) citizen members. If you are not a European Union citizen then the system becomes more complex with boundaries for entry. European law is the highest form of law within the EU, for example it will overpower British Acts of Parliament. If you are a citizen of a member state that is a member of the European Union then you will be allowed…

across world history, often characterized by implementation of racialized discriminatory immigration practices. In this essay, I am going to compare and contrast the history of the Japanese internment in the United States during WWII with recent European Union processes. In 1942, President Roosevelt executed an enforced relocation of Japanese citizens and immigrants, which lasted for four years. It was officially declared as an authorized evacuation of all “enemy aliens” from designated areas…

beginning but it actually is mainly towards Europe. Refugees cannot stay in Turkey whence they go to Europe for this extremely important reason: They cannot work in Turkey due to their social status though the AKP government granted the refugees citizenship to get their votes. So the refugees from Syria have to reach Europe. To put it briefly the difficulties the refugees face are the Dublin Regulation which unables the refugees to go further in Schengen countries, the horrific life conditions…

the North Sea. It has been among the countries with highest credit ratings. Its main exports are industrial production / manufactured goods, agricultural products, and others for consumption. The United States of America is Denmark's largest non-European trading partner. Its main trade partners within Europe are Germany, Sweden, UK, Netherlands, Norway, France, and…

The European Union is one of the most idealistic and promising entities on the planet. It is a beacon of coming togetherness in order to promote an international wellness. However,such a political organisation will not exist without its flaws. The EUs flaws are in how its internal politics work. While the EU does try to promote a stronger Europe, sometimes this is at the cost of individual countries. The ‘one country one vote system’ that is present incentivises votes that promote the general…
