Since the mid-1980s, European countries continue to strengthen immigration controls at their borders, as well as in transit countries. As a result, migrants’ routes become more and more dangerous and the poorest population of the planet is assigned to “house arrest”.
In 2013 it wouldn’t be possible for an Atlas on European Union (EU) asylum and immigration policies to ignore the dramatic situations permanently ongoing at its borders.
Every year, hundreds of exiles die, by drowning, by exhaustion, on overloaded boats and along militarized terrestrial borders.
Seeking to flee countries in crisis or war, they cannot do it legally because of the repressive migration policies of the EU and its Member States and of enhanced surveillance of European borders, especially South and East. International law is often applied in a restrictive manner, or denied.
