Hallo everyone. So because my Husband is from the UK; we are usually back and forth London and Florida. So anyway, i will soon have to hand in a thesis idea. I wanted to write on the refugee issue in the EU; but i have really no idea on how to frame this exactly. Any ideas on this?? Would appreciate some insight into this. Contradictions are also welcomed. Thank you!
@olexi my take is if this topic is something you need insight on then it's not the right thesis topic for you. on top of this the refugee crisis is an insanely touchy subject. any sidestep will make you look like a fool to your evaluators. I personally wouldn't want to have to write my thesis on it. As for "how to frame this" : this is how and no other way :
Thank you for saying this. It's true, this topic is very very sensitive, and i am thinking of changing it overall.
If you want to add an extra spin on it- you can look into how the refugee crisis has been manipulated / used for other political goals (e.g. Brexit) "take back control of the borders"- when in actual fact the PM herself has said after all of this that "net migration is unlikely to change after Brexit"... It's a very complicated topic- certainly lots to look into for a thesis. The tricky part will be keeping it focused enough haha.
well a thesis on "adverse effects/negative impact of the immigration crisis of 2014-present day" is something that is much more pinpoint and much less touchy. there there's plenty to say and at worse you "forgot" an axis that deserved pole or quasi-pole position but that's less of a foul then the possible fouls I mentioned earlier.
Theresa May (UK PM)... A link to a relevant article: https://www.theguardian.com/politic...theresa-may-triggers-article-50-politics-live Edit: The irony of the above is that the campaign over here revolved around 'too many migrant workers', who were made into a political scapegoat for all of the UK's problems. The reality is though that unemployment in the UK is really low, and we rely on migrant workers to fill the gap in the labor market. To my mind it means one of the main pillars on which the 'leave' campaign was based was totally misrepresented.
Thanks for sharing this. I am still weighing my options whether i really want to do immigration, because i feel like it could evoke emotions. Being that i am someone who does not believe in any form of discrimination, this would be going against my principles.
