UCG tutor Dr. Wander Jager on the refugee crisis
University College Groningens' senior tutor dr. Wander Jager wrote an article together with Rocco Paolillo (guest researcher at the Groningen Centre of Social Complexity Studies and UCG) about the immigration policies of Europe.
In the article they focus on the short term solutions that the EU is using, which concerns both researchers: 'Our opinion is that the current policies adopted by the EU lack a perspective on the social dynamics that emerge from the refugee crisis, and we state that a social complexity perspective may contribute to developing more adaptive policies'.
