Since 2015, Germany has experienced a growing influx of people, who are fleeing their home country or a third country for various reasons. When people flee, they take the initiative and move “from a threatened to a safe place” (von Aster & von Aster, 2016, 5), whereby the “spatial movement” is intended to “help increase agency” (Oltmer, 2019, 26). The nature of the threat can be “more or less existential and its respective cause very diverse” (Reith & Block, 2019, 149). In addition to ‘forced migration’, motives for leaving one’s home country include the desire to improve “employment or settlement opportunities, labor market, education, training or marriage opportunities” (Oltmer, 2019, 26).

摘要

Since 2015, Germany has experienced a growing influx of people, who are fleeing their home country or a third country for various reasons. When people flee, they take the initiative and move “from a threatened to a safe place” (von Aster & von Aster, 2016, 5), whereby the “spatial movement” is intended to “help increase agency” (Oltmer, 2019, 26). The nature of the threat can be “more or less existential and its respective cause very diverse” (Reith & Block, 2019, 149). In addition to ‘forced migration’, motives for leaving one’s home country include the desire to improve “employment or settlement opportunities, labor market, education, training or marriage opportunities” (Oltmer, 2019, 26).
