Law Enforcement without the Rule of LawConsiglio, ElenaMigration at seaEuropean UnionBorder ControlAsylumHuman RightsIt could be successfully argued that there is a general obligation to save lives in danger at sea and that this obligation is moral in nature. Such reasoning, however, is not the specific aim of this paper. Instead, this paper focuses on the legal obligations of the European Union (EU), its Member States, other neighbouring countries, and the EU Border and Coast Guard, towards migrants attempting the risky journey to Europe, in order to find out whether there are any legal steps that can be taken in order to help eliminate deaths in the Mediterranean. The article focuses on the main International Conventions on maritime law, international human rights law, international asylum law, the relevant legislation and regulations of the European Union and Italian law, offering an assessment on the legality of the EU border control operations at sea. The main argument of this paper is that the European policy on the enforcement of border control at sea fails to respect the basic principle of legality, and therefore it is against the Rule of Law.2017text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6896914(Revista) ISSN 1826-8269Jura Gentium: Rivista di filosofia del diritto internazionale e della politica globale, ISSN 1826-8269, Vol. 14, Nº. 2, 2017, pags. 108-127engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
