Sažetak
Entering the second year of temporary protection granted to people who left Ukraine under the Russian invasion opens a new area in the analysis of the effects and consequences of mass emigration in Europe. This paper aims to analyse the Ukrainian refugee crisis from the perspective of the sociology of migration, primarily from the perspective of the sociology of forced or refugee migration. In doing so, the theoretical approaches of Anthony Richmond, Stephen Castels and David FitzGerald and Rawan Arar are considered. The central part of the paper provides an overview of available statistical data on the number of refugees from Ukraine before and after the invasion started in selected EU countries and Croatia, and describes the measures prescribed by the Directive on temporary protection. The Ukrainian refugee crisis is further analysed through the basic terms and starting points of the analysed theoretical approaches, using examples characteristic primarily of the Croatian context. The concluding part compares the current Ukrainian refugee crisis with the refugee crisis of 2015 and 2016, pointing out the possible existence of double standards in solving refugee issues and considering the implications for a migration management system in general.
