Integração regional, globalização e a crise humanitária: fronteiras materiais e simbólicas da União Europeia

Abstract

Historically, European states dictated the rules of the world for their belligerence, defining cultural, religious and racial standards accepted, as well as those repudiated, labeled as “uncivilized”. However, after the Great World Wars, it was necessary to revise the relationship of the international community, in order to pacify, culminating in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), to protect human beings, as well as to promote Globalization and Capitalist prosperity. With the expectation of this "new world", immigrants go to central countries in search of way of survival and a dignified life. Currently, however, the humanitarian issue of immigrants faces dilemmas, with the spread of the wave of conservatism, resulting in the issue of this project on the humanitarian tensions generated from the crises of the capitalist system, which result in the great mobility of the masses towards the central countries, mainly refugees and stateless persons. The research aims to study humanitarian crises in Europe, fundamentally within the perspectiv of vulnerable populations of refugees and stateless persons and, using the hypothetical-deductive method, the attitudes conceived and assumed by the bloc will be analyzed, tracing a profile about humanitarian reception and social, political and legal treatment of migrants. Starting from the hypothesis of the perspective of Europe committed to building a solidary coexistence, through the composition of International Human Rights Law (IHRL) and UDHR, for the production of a dignified, equal and fair life. The second hypothesis starts from the idea of the progressive construction of Europe Fortress, through material and symbolic borders, strengthened by the fear culture and symbolic power, thus promoting segregation in the community.
