The ARRECO project’s leaders are proud to announce the publication of this book aiming to analyze the evolutions of the welcoming of people in need of international protection, organized “at Europe’s doorstep”, in other words in neighboring or transit countries. It considers the operational organization of legal ways allowing such people to enter the territory of the European Union, but also the diferent forms of cooperation implemented between the European Union and non-EU States to promote the development of this cooperation on asylum matters, which often have to be put in perspective in a larger context of cooperation on migratory matters.
