Philippe De Bruycker concludes with a series of overarching reflections on the principles that should guide a new European consensus on migration, including solidarity and the need for ‘commonality’ in common EU migration and asylum policies. His chapter also revisits some of the central recommendations provided throughout the publication and links them together.
This chapter is part of the publication ‘From Tampere 20 to Tampere 2.0: Towards a new European consensus on migration’, which takes stock of the EU’s migration and asylum policies 20 years after the historic 1999 Tampere European Council conclusions. It argues that solidarity and the implementation of common policies are the two building blocks for a new European consensus on migration. The book is the final result of a year-long research project conducted by the European Policy Centre together with Odysseus Academic Network, European Migration Network Finland and the Friedrich Naumann Foundation.
