Political Asylum In The Federal Republic Of Germany And The Republic Of France: Lessons For The United States, T. Alexander Aleinikoff
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The recent flood of asylum claims, and the concerns it engenders, are not peculiar to the United States.

This Article will describe the experience of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Republic of France in coping with the explosion of asylum claims.
