Paradygmat bezpieczeństwa w polityce imigracyjnej UE
‘Security’ Paradigm in the EU’s Immigration Policy

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is the reconstruction of a nature of EU’s immigration policy that emerges from EU’s activities and reaction on migration crisis, understood as an effect of the unprecedented inflow of economic migrants and asylum seekers in 2015–2016. The analysis is focused on presenting the impact of the concept of security on the nature and scope of legislative and political measures adopted by the EU in the scope of migration policy. The article underlines that security is a factor which fundamentally determines the EU’s migration policy. The EU’ intervention to the migration crisis, giving priority to security-driven concern, was focused to meet a ‘secure border’ demand, understood as a process of increase the level of their closeness (as a opposition to openness) and impermeability. In the effect, the EU’s response to the migration crisis was highly narrow, fragmentary and insufficient.
