Summary/Abstract: Addressing the issue of refuge and asylum (R&A) in Germany’s context is highly relevant and timely, as the world seems is to be slipping into turmoils and millions of refugees and asylum seekers from almost all parts of the world have entered the country since the early 2000s, with total numbers growing day by day, many displaced by war and violence, others just looking for a materially better place to live. This poses strong challenges for Germany’s economy and society, while at the same time the governments’ capacities to control the process seem to be quite limited.
