Making the Asylum System More Efficient and More Humane

The current asylum system is contradictory, unfair, and both costly and hazardous for all involved. Under the present rules, refugees can normally only apply for asylum in a country after they have crossed its border often by illegal means and at great risk to their personal safety. The solution is to reform the system so that people can apply for asylum before they enter the EU.
The recent EU-Turkey refugee deal does little to resolve the current crisis. While it is true that the flow of refugees from Turkey to Greece has reduced significantly, there has been a simultaneous increase in the number of refugees using other routes to enter the EU. The response from the German government is to seek more deals this time with countries in North Africa.

Revolution can be understood as expressions of crises of conscience. Conscience defines the dynamic relationship of an individual to the world, as a pivotal determiner in time and space. Self- confidence is identical with self- esteem. Thinking, as it takes place in the world, is not the topic. Rather, it is the intention of recognizing the world in which thinking takes place. Our concept of “Global Science.” thus emerged as an aid to orientation in an ever changing world. Present day political philosophy assumes that it is better for theories to die than for people to die.

Summary: The sciences influence people at the present time more than ever. For this reason, topics addressed by science are no longer only an internal affair for experts and the scientific elite.
Our study presents the 8 currently known forms of logic and research methodology, which have in part been used in unchanged fashion for several centuries. The laws of classical logic account for the axis around which thinking and human orientation revolve.
Scientific policy and research strategy are occupied with the question, among others, of whether political freedom and national autonomy are possible as long as an intellectual and scientific dependency on foreign cultures and ways of thinking persist.
