Practices in Focus: The Dilemmas That Evoke them and the Effects They Have
Julia Dahlvik
This study investigated a problem that can be expressed in two broad questions. Under what circumstances do decision makers work, and how can those circumstances be explained? How do officials deal with these circumstances, that is, the structural tensions, and how can their practices be explained? My approach to exploring these questions was a case study that was inspired by institutional ethnography and adopted the combined analytical lens of social practice, structuration and (post-)constructivist theories. Throughout the book, I aimed to show how these theoretical perspectives complement each other on the basis of empirical findings. In closing, this chapter focuses on officials’ practices and offers concluding theoretical remarks in this regard.

Practical Implications: How to Deal with Structural Dilemmas?
Julia Dahlvik
Whereas the socio-theoretical perspective on the study’s key issues contributes to the academic debate, this chapter discusses some practical implications of the main findings that might be relevant not only to scholars but also to practitioners and activists in the field. First, ideas for dealing with the current challenges – present throughout Western democracies – and improving the asylum procedure are explored. I then argue for a stronger focus on procedural justice and ethical competence in public administration as a means of creating an improved asylum procedure. To that end, I discuss the issue of ethics and organizational culture and ethical decision making in the asylum procedure. The book concludes with a brief outlook on possible future research avenues.
