This article demonstrates that the role of the European Commission in the area of asylum policy is characterised by an imbalance between politicisation and rationality. Politicisation of the role of the Commission is especially visible in its proposals for border procedures in the New Pact on Migration and Asylum. We show that the efficiency and effectiveness of these proposals are not supported by evidence or a thorough assessment of past EU action, as required by Better Regulation. The result is that they fail to address the structural problems that exist with regard to the implementation and application of EU law at external borders. The broken balance between politicisation and rationality in the legislative process leads to a prioritisation of security over freedom and justice. We argue that it needs to be compensated by a stronger role of the judiciary.

委员会关于移民和庇护的新公约中的边境程序：一个政治战胜理性的案例？

本文论证了欧盟委员会在庇护政策领域的作用具有政治化与理性不平衡的特点。委员会作用的政治化在其关于移民和庇护新公约的边境程序提案中尤为明显。我们表明，这些提案的效率和有效性并没有得到更好的监管要求的证据或对过去欧盟行动的彻底评估的支持。结果是它们未能解决在外部边界实施和适用欧盟法律方面存在的结构性问题。立法过程中政治化与理性之间的平衡被打破，导致安全优先于自由和正义。
