abstract

The article discusses the conflict between the social reality of mass refugees and human rights and fundamental freedoms as a value system. In the first part, the article analyses human rights and fundamental freedoms as a source of modern democratic legitimacy of nation states, which ensure high standards of protection primarily for their citizens, but cannot cope with limit phenomena, such as the existence of refugees, which stand outside the contemplation of the national constitutional systems. A refugee is a person, but not a citizen, creating a problem regarding the constitutional safeguards of human rights character. In the second part, the paper analyses the issue of relocation of asylum seekers within the EU member states, which raises a number of issues of international and human rights dimension, raising the fundamental question of whether the relocation mechanism resembles a rather bureaucratic solution to the migration crisis, without having regard to the will of the EU member states or migrants as human beings.
