Summary:

Flight is a social field of conflict in a globally unequal world. The appeal to human rights (universal) values ​​is increasingly taking a back seat in favor of nation-state (particular) interests. Global inequalities mean that migration is the only chance for many to escape unbearable living conditions in their countries of origin. The target countries react with defensive measures: Humanitarian considerations are becoming less important in favor of national political interests. Karin Scherschel and Albert Scherr analyze flight in the context of globalization processes and as a field of social conflict. They ask about the causes of migration and examine the reasons and consequences of the restrictive version of the refugee concept with which refugees are granted or denied admission and protection.
