Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Migration Law provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the international legal framework applicable to the movement of persons across borders. The role of international law in this field is complex, and often ambiguous: there is no single source for the international law governing migration. The current framework is scattered throughout a wide array of rules belonging to numerous fields of international law, including refugee law, human rights law, humanitarian law, labour law, trade law, maritime law, criminal law, and consular law. This textbook therefore cuts through this complexity by clearly demonstrating what the current international law is, and assessing how it operates. The book offers a unique and comprehensive mapping of this growing field of international law. It brings together and critically analyses the disparate conventional, customary, and soft law on a broad variety of issues, such as irregular migration, human trafficking, refugee protection, labour migration, non-discrimination, regional free movement schemes, and global migration governance. It also offers a particular focus on important groups of migrants, namely migrant workers, refugees, and smuggled migrants. It maps the current status of the law governing their movement, providing a thorough critical analysis of the various stands of international law which apply to them, suggesting how the law may continue to develop in the future. This book provides the perfect introduction to all aspects of migration and international law.

Download or read book The Refugee in International Law written by Guy S. Goodwin-Gill and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The status of the refugee in international law, and of everyone entitled to protection, has ever been precarious, not least in times of heightened and heated debate: people have always moved in search of safety, and they always will. In this completely revised and updated edition, the authors cast new light on the refugee definition, the meaning of persecution, including with regard to gender and sexual orientation, and the protection due to refugees and those affected by statelessness or disasters. They review the fundamental principle of non-refoulement as a restraint on the conduct of States, even as States themselves seek new ways to prevent the arrival of those in search of refuge. Related principles of protection—non-discrimination, due process, rescue at sea, and solutions— are analysed in light of the actual practice of States, UNHCR, and treaty-monitoring bodies. The authors closely examine relevant international standards, and the role of UNHCR, States, and civil society, in providing protection, contributing to the development of international refugee law, and promoting solutions. New chapters focus on the evolving rules on nationality, statelessness, and displacement due to disasters and climate change. This expanded edition factors in the challenges posed by the movement of people across land and sea in search of refuge, and their interception, reception, and later treatment. The overall aim remains the same as in previous editions: to provide a sound basis for protection in international law, taking full account of State and community interests and recognizing the need to bridge gaps in the regime which now has 100 years of law and practice behind it.

Download or read book Migration and refugee protection in the 21st century written by Guy S. Goodwin-Gill and published by Brill Nijhoff. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International migration and refugee protection are at a crossroads. On the one hand, contested rules and the absence of competent institutions open the door to exploitation, smuggling and trafficking, and also to inefficient, often ineffective management at the State level; on the other, long-accepted rules of refugee protection, such as non-refoulement, are under strain as States struggle to cope with increasing numbers of the displaced and an international infra-structure seemingly incapable of dealing adequately with causes, including conflict, of promoting solutions and sharing responsibility fairly and equitably, and of ensuring protection of the rights of those on the move.This collection of essays could not be more timely. Coming from a wide range of backgrounds and experience, the authors take up these issues, from the very nature of migration and displacement in a world of sovereign States, through tentative efforts to improve migration management by way of treaty, to the ever-present tension between individual rights and State interests.This volume provides essential reading for anyone interested in the burning questions of today, and in the role of international law in steering coherent responses and facilitating humane solutions.La migration internationale et la protection des réfugiés sont à un tournant. D'un côté, des règles contestées et l'absence d'institution compétente ouvrent la porte à l'exploitation et au trafic de contrebande, ainsi qu'à une gestion étatique inefficace. D'un autre côté, des règles concernant la protection des réfugiés acceptées depuis longtemps, comme le principe de non-refoulement, sont mises à mal car les Etats ont du mal à gérer le nombre grandissant de personnes déplacées. De plus, l'infrastructure internationale est incapable de gérer de façon adéquate les causes, tels que les conflits, ou de promouvoir des solutions et de partager la responsabilité de façon juste et équitable, ainsi que d'assurer la protection des droits des personnes en déplacement.Ce recueil d'essais arrive à point nommé. Les auteurs viennent d'horizons très variés et tentent d'aborder ces problématiques en partant de la nature même de la migration et du déplacement dans un monde d'Etats souverains en essayant d'apporter des solutions afin d'avoir une meilleure gestion de la migration par des traités, en observant la tension entre les droits individuels et les intérêts des Etats.Ce volume est incontournable pour quiconque s'intéresse à ce sujet d'actualité, et plus particulièrement au rôle du droit international dont on attend des réponses cohérentes et des solutions humaines.Originally published as Colloques / Workshops - Law Books of the Academy, Volume 36.With a contribution of:C. d'OrsiJ.

Download or read book Immigration Detention Risk and Human Rights written by Maria João Guia and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a brand new point of view on immigration detention, pursuing a multidisciplinary approach and presenting new reflections by internationally respected experts from academic and institutional backgrounds. It offers an in-depth perspective on the immigration framework, together with the evolution of European and international political decisions on the management of immigration. Readers will be introduced to new international decisions on the protection of human rights, together with international measures concerning the detention of immigrants. In recent years, International Law and European Law have converged to develop measures for combatting irregular immigration. Some of them include the criminalization of illegally entering a member state or illegally remaining there after legally entering. Though migration has become a great challenge for policymakers, legislators and society as a whole, we must never forget that migrants should enjoy the same human rights and legal protection as everyone else.

Download or read book International Migration Law written by Ryszard Cholewinski and published by T.M.C. Asser Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a Foreword by Brunson McKinley, Director General of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) This book encapsulates the law of international migration by examining developments first addressed in the volume on Migration and International Legal Norms (edited by T.A. Aleinikoff and V. Chetail; T.M.C. Asser Press 2003) and by discussing wholly new themes. In this regard, the book considers emerging issues, such as the challenges posed by migration to State sovereignty and the protection of human rights as a result of the increasing tensions between anti-terrorism or security legislation and immigration measures, the impact of the use of biometrics technology (e.g. fingerprinting) to identify and better monitor international movements of persons, and enhanced cooperation on the European Union external border. The human rights of vulnerable groups of migrants, such as migrant workers, women, victims of trafficking, and stateless persons are also examined. The issue of forced migration warrants a consideration of the international migration law relating to groups such as internally displaced persons, as well as the international community’s response to secondary movements of asylum-seekers. Questions of state responsibility concerning, for example, stranded migrants and provision of consular protection and assistance to migrants are also discussed. Moreover, the expansion of regional legal frameworks concerned with migration, such as EU immigration and asylum law and policy and the growing case law on European citizenship, as well as developments in free movement regimes in Africa, the Americas and the Caribbean, are added to the analysis of the growing body of international migration law. A range of persons from international organizations, legal practice and academia with expertise in International Migration Law have contributed to this volume, which is aimed at a broad audience, including policy makers, academics, researchers, postgraduate students, legal practitioners, civil society representatives and journalists. Ryszard Cholewinski is Labour Migration Specialist in the Migration Policy, Research and Communications Department of IOM, the International Organization for Migration, in Geneva. In the same organization, Richard Perruchoud is Director of the International Migration Law and Legal Affairs Department.

Download or read book Issues in International Migration Law written by Richard Plender and published by Hotei Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-04 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively collection presents the revised papers resulting from a conference held at the Faculty of Law of the University of Groningen under the auspices of the Groningen Centre for Law and Governance and the Department of European and Economic Law. The conference brought together scholars from a number of countries to examine a series of current issues in international migration law - a topic which continues to be of major importance worldwide. The collection aims to widen horizons in the debate and assist in achieving an understanding of the fact, often forgotten by those who prefer rhetoric to understanding, that migration is a truly global phenomenon. While Europe is at the forefront of population changes and debates on the control and management of migration, there are major issues and crises in many areas across the globe, and various contributions to this volume rightly draw attention to them.

Download or read book Compendium of International Migration Law Instruments written by Richard Perruchoud and published by T.M.C. Asser Press. This book was released on 2007-10-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you believe that States have complete discretion in handling migration matters and that migrants are not protected under international law, read this book. You will be amazed by the wealth of international instruments, treaties, standards and principles existing in international law. Rights and obligations of States, as well as rights and duties of migrants, are defined in a great number of legal instruments – some of them hard to find – stemming from various branches of law and constituting what is known as “international migration law”. This publication assists readers – be they academics, students, practitioners, experts or migrants themselves – to better orientate themselves in this web of norms and principles existing at the international level. The focus of the Compendium is a comprehensive compilation of universal instruments with varying degrees of legal force – from authoritative international treaties, through customary international law, to the sets of principles and guidelines which, although non-binding, are nonetheless of clear contemporary relevance and can contribute to the progressive development of law in areas not yet covered by “hard” norms. To further this end, this book is being released as a companion to International Migration Law – Developing Paradigms and Key Challenges (edited by R. Cholewinski, R. Perruchoud and E. MacDonald and published by T.M.C. Asser Press, The Hague 2007), which shows how these norms have been applied and are developing in various concrete contexts. Richard Perruchoud is Director of the International migration Law and Legal Affairs Department of the International Organization for Migration in Geneva. Katarína Tömölová is an Associate Legal Officer in the same Department of IOM.
