Abstract

Møller offers an account of the refugee flows in and out of the Greater Horn of Africa with a special emphasis on the (classical or critical) geopolitical aspects thereof. Distances still matter, both with regard to the causes of displacement and the destination. The main cause of refugee flows is armed conflict, which mainly takes place within countries or between neighbouring countries, and the first (and often final) destination of refugee flows is likewise neighbouring countries. The latter tendency is further strengthened by the efforts by the European Union to externalise its border controls, e.g. by means of “carrier sanctions” as a result of which it becomes almost impossible to reach a place where an application for asylum may be handed in and processed.
