BUILDING A COMMON IMMIGRATION AND ASYLUM POLICY, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE?

Ruth Ferrero-Turrión

More than twenty years have passed since the 1999 Tampere European Council launched the project to build a common immigration and asylum policy. The main objective was to formulate a public policy that was balanced and that allowed the management of legal immigration, as well as controlling irregular migratory flows in equal parts. Furthermore, all of this would be governed by the principle of solidarity and equity in burden-sharing among the Member States.
