Equal yet inequitable: EU’s relocation system of shared responsibility
Abstract
This essay critically analyses the reasoning behind the European Union (EU)’s temporary relocation system for internally re-distributing refugees. It argues that the current distributive quota fails to equitably allocate inter-state responsibility, especially as the weighted indicators do not fully account for the inherent economic, social, cultural and political differences between the EU Member States.
