political and legal solution. It should cover an introduction to the European Asylum System in a historical context and
international context, analysis of EU legislation in force and case study on transposition of relevant legislation into
Czech legal system. Contemporary problems in the time of Ukraine refugee crisis, and activation of temporary
protection régime, especially in the light of the Czech Republic experience. The course should focus not only on

asylum or temporary protection seeker. The aim of the course is to improve the knowledge of the European Asylum
