摘要:This article contains a synthesis of quantitative data relevant to the "European refugee crisis" which started in 2015, when a large number of people migrated from West Asia, South Asia and Africa to Europe, especially to Germany. I call this phenomenon "new exodus." Through secondary analysis of recent European and German official reports on migration I tried to provide a clear image capable of offering us the understanding of the social dimension of this phenomenon. I have also clarified the main concepts used in the public discourse on the refugee crisis, with focus on the “asylum seeker” – the main indicator in the European and German statistics.
