“…There are certain questions presented at the European level that we have attempted to answer, such as “who needs international protection?” If the Member State of first entry is to take primary responsibility for the asylum procedure, what are the legal obligations that Member States have towards asylum seekers and beneficiaries?

In recent years, international migration has changed considerably, improving our understanding of the diversity of migrants, something that until recently was viewed as a fixed pattern associated with the ethnic group in question. At the same time, in the international context, the importance and the need to recognize the rights of people with disabilities has grown. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to provide a more detailed analysis of this phenomenon in Europe, from the perspective of superdiversity, which covers the different variables that come into play, as well as the responses to the diverse needs that are provided through the action protocols in host countries. To address the objective of this research, we present a critical review of the migration policies undertaken at the European level, methodologically approached using the causal inference model. Our findings show a lack of structure of social and professional intervention policies, at the international level, towards refugees with disabilities. We conclude by presenting a series of political guidelines that rely on scientific evidence to improve the lives of migrants with disabilities.

“…Migrants constitute approximately 10% of the world’s population, out of which 3.5% are international migrants, including less than 1% of the world’s internal and international migrants forcibly displaced (cf. Kury and Redo 2018 , p. XXXII). Three points immediately come to attention.…”

“…But this may be an act of EU’s humanitarian gesture, not an obligation, also for Germany—a major destination country. As mentioned elsewhere (see Kury and Redo 2018 ) over the past few years, the growing resentment of German society makes the reception of irregular migrants less and less acceptable, hence the potential for their integration dwindles. The turning point has been reached quite a time ago.…”

The Epilogue reflects on various interpretations and aspects of justice interwoven in the contributions to this book. Against the baseline of what is considered in the United Nations as “justice”, the text addresses first Artificial Intelligence, then goes into spiritual justice, and, finally, focuses on the secular justice as a part of its administration and delivery in Member States of the United Nations. After reflecting on these “Heavens-to-Earth” interpretations of justice, the authors formulate recommendations involving a “common language of justice.” With it the United Nations—a global ecumenical organization—celebrating its seventy-fifth anniversary may respond to the challenges involved in the implementation of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda and beyond, as far as democracy and the rule of law are concerned. In this regard, at the domestic and international levels the coronavirus pandemic opened a new legal scenario (“the Day After”). At its heart is “Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions”—the cross-cutting goal of the 2030 Agenda.

Background: The initial and intermediate-term access of refugees to healthcare in Germany is limited. A previous study showed that the obligation to request healthcare vouchers at the social security offices decreases the asylum seekers’ consultation rate of ambulant physicians. The introduction of the Electronic Health Insurance Card (EHIC) for asylum seekers is considered skeptically by some municipalities and federal states, among other reasons due to the fear of an overuse of health care services by asylum seekers. The aim of this study is to further evaluate the data of the authors’ initial study with a new focus on inpatient care as well as a differentiation of the ambulant consultation rate into general practitioners and outpatient specialists. Methods: The now-differentiated consultation rate of the initial study as well as the asylum seekers’ use of inpatient care are compared to the values of the sex- and age-corrected autochthonous population as given by the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Adults (DEGS1). A mean difference test (student’s t-test) is used for comparison and significance testing. Results: Asylum seekers who were in possession of the EHIC were significantly less likely to visit their ambulant general practitioners and specialists than the German autochthonous population. Simultaneously, this difference is partly compensated for by their more frequent use of impatient care. Conclusions: There is no indication that the EHIC leads to an overuse of healthcare services.
