Special Edition: Should we really scrap the asylum system?

In this special episode in English, Gerald Knaus (migration and policy expert) and Philipp Sandmann (journalist) discuss two topics: the debate about the cover story of the "Economist" ("Scrap the asylum system") and the recent deal between the UK and France regarding illegal Channel crossings. Knaus has a clear stance when it comes to the "Economist" story. He argues: "A title that raises awareness of a big problem, but it provides the wrong numbers, the wrong analysis and arrives at the wrong conclusions."
