Abstract (may include machine translation)
The study reviews those arguments which may be proposed in support of protecting refugees, beyond (or before) the legal obligation. It serves as a foundational essay, arguing that the legal obligation only flows from the ten different arguments calling for the protection of refugees. Six of them are relate to identity construction, the remaining four are utilitarian, historic or political.
