Abstract

The current refugee influx represents the largest population movement in Europe since World War II. These tendencies, once again brought into actuality the harmonization of intern legislation which are committed to protect refugees by the Convection related to the Status of Refugees (1951) and it’s Protocol (1967). Many experts agree that, in short term, the refugee influx will lead top rising costs, arising from the need to provide food, shelter and first aid. In the longer term, the refugee influx could be positive for European economy by, addressing the EU’s alarming demographic trends. Depending on their education, skills and willingness to work, refugees might improve the ratio of active workers and also contribute to innovation, entrepreneurship and GDP growth. Also they are a good possibility to positively impact to labor-market flexibility. The authors through the paper intended to provide answers to several questions: How many of today's legislation and practices respect the principle of ‘’non-refoulmen’’ of refugees? Does the United Nations can fulfill the role of general defender of refugees? How much is the cost of refugee’s resettlement? etc. To verify these thoughts and hypothesis, the authors will be using different methods of scientific research as: normative, comparative, empiric, historical and statistical methods.
