Temporary Protected Status for the Nationals of the Third Countries and Stateless Persons: A Notion to be Promoted in Fighting Xenophobia

Abstract

The Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is one of the key-notion in the ultra-contemporary debates related with the migrants and refugees’ issues. It is the politico-judicial notion of human solidarity and democratic support in cases of political disasters. It is the practical alternative to the xenophobic ideas and attitudes enrooted in the forgetfulness of the tragedies of mankind and solutions commonly agreed to prevent or fight them. It is also the obvious results of the public confusions. The present paper is an attempt to draw the attention to its political meanings and dimensions, as well as, to remember a collective tragedy, the Sturma, as a case for which an active mechanism as TPS could have been the political savior mechanism. It is a call for the public support in immediately saving the people in risks of political persecutions or executions.
