Abstract
The article analyses the refugee dilemma and the differing reactions and attitudes in European countries. It concentrates on the mass immigration to Europe since 2015. The main focus here is on Germany, which had accepted the highest number of refugees. It shows that after a phase of welcome culture, attitudes in part have changed towards rejection and rising xenophobia. Extreme right parties have gained support all over in Europe by using immigrants as scapegoats for downsizing welfare, rising inequality, and unemployment. The article not only shows the causes of flight and reactions on mass immigration but also proposes human alternatives, which is missing in publications on the “refugee crisis” in Europe. These proposals would help to minimize the -sometimes- deadly trip to Europe, and furthermore, would reduce the immense challenge of integration in the European societies and help to defend democratic culture.
