Refugees, Resources, Security, and Beyond

Legal and Broader Impacts of the War in Ukraine on Hungary and Poland

Conclusion

The EU’s Temporary Protection Directive was applied for the first time, despite the fact that the conditions for ‘qualification’ set out in the Directive were already in place during the 2015 refugee crisis. However, during the present crisis triggered by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the Directive was employed as a crisis management instrument. This resulted in refugees from Ukraine being granted a series of rights that are not available to asylum seekers under the conventional asylum procedure, which entails fewer rights and more obligations. In conclusion, the overall assessment is that the objective of establishing temporary protection – namely, the more efficient regularisation of the status of refugees and their more successful integration into the socio-economic space – has been achieved.

This volume examines the multifaceted consequences of Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, with a focus on Hungary and Poland. It offers an interdisciplinary exploration of legal, social, and political responses to the war, highlighting the refugee crisis, resource challenges, and security implications. Divided into two parts, the book first addresses the unprecedented displacement caused by the war, analysing refugee protection frameworks, humanitarian assistance, and legal solutions in Hungary and Poland, alongside the specific needs of vulnerable groups. The second part expands the scope to consider broader impacts, including technological and cultural dimensions, energy security, and public discourse in the region. By bringing together contributions from Polish and Hungarian scholars, this volume provides a comprehensive and nuanced perspective on the far-reaching effects of the war, offering critical insights into the legal and socio-political transformations shaping Central and Eastern Europe.
