Abstract

According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948, the
right to asylum1
is one of the fundamental human rights. States recognize the
right of asylum to persons in accordance with the principle of discretion, if
there is a real risk of persecution in their countries of origin because of their
affiliation to race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social
group, or political affiliation. Persons, who receive an international
protection, actually obtain legal status in the country of asylum i.e. acquire
certain rights and obligations. The subject of this paper is to scrutinize the
right to asylum. The paper consists of an introduction, three parts and a
conclusion. It begins by presenting the theoretical definitions of the right to
asylum incorporated in the national legal systems and in the legislative of the
international organizations. In the first part, the legal framework for asylum
in the European Union is analyzed, while in the second part, the legal and
institutional framework for asylum in the Republic of Macedonia is
considered. The third part includes an empirical data on asylum, published
by the competent authorities, as well as certain assessments and
recommendations regarding that empirical data.
Keywords: asylum, subsidiary protection, security.
