This study aims to investigate ideological implications in EU specialized legal discourse on immigration and asylum and identify a role for the EU in a dialogic communication with the Member States by means of such legally binding instruments as Directives. In this setting the findings of a quantitative-qualitative analysis revealed a distinct role for ‘should’ in determining the ideological framework for legislation in such a way that no possibility is left that an expectation may remain unfulfilled.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate ideological implications in EU specialized legal discourse on immigration and asylum and identify a role for the EU in a dialogic communication with the Member States by means of such legally binding instruments as Directives. In this setting the findings of a quantitative-qualitative analysis revealed a distinct role for ‘should’ in determining the ideological framework for legislation in such a way that no possibility is left that an expectation may remain unfulfilled.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
