Book excerpt: Only the most desperate woman in Londonwould wed a nobleman everyone believes to be mad . . . Once upon a time, Michael Vane, Earl of Sherrington, was the most sought-after bachelor in London. Now he languishes in an isolated abbey on the English moors, shunned by society and rumored to be crazy. But the melancholy aristocrat has just been given an ultimatum by his scheming grandmother: Marry and produce an heir or be locked away forever in an insane asylum. All he has to do is find a woman willing to wed him. Three times engaged, her fiancés barely escaping with their lives, Emily Merriman has the best reason of all for agreeing to an arranged marriage with society’s most notorious noble. Cursed by a malicious witch, the Boston beauty brings bad luck to any man unfortunate enough to win her heart. Since the Sherrington heir is a total stranger, he will be safe from harm. All Emily has to do is make sure she doesn’t fall in love with her husband. Featuring a pair of unconventional matchmakers, Bewitched is the incandescent story of a man and a woman who marry for all the wrong reasons . . . and discover a love worth fighting for.

Download or read book Whatever Happened to Asylum in Britain written by Louise Pirouet and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugees and asylum-seekers are high up on many people's political agenda. Even so, there is a remarkable lack of information. Who are these asylum-seekers? Aren't they almost all "bogus"? How do western immigration authorities decide whether or not they are genuine? Is the UN convention on Refugees out of date and in need of renegotiation? This book brings insider knowledge to the study of asylum in Britain today. It is based on visits to places where asylum seekers are detained, on working with lawyers representing asylum-seekers and on a close knowledge of many of the refugee organisations. It argues passionately that Britain shall not throw away, through ignorance and misunderstanding, a reputation for providing a place of safety for the persecuted, and the chance of welcoming people who have much to contribute to national life and culture.

Download or read book Asylum after Empire written by Lucy Mayblin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-04-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asylum seekers are not welcome in Europe. But why is that the case? For many scholars, the policies have become more restrictive over recent decades because the asylum seekers have changed. This change is often said to be about numbers, methods of travel, and reasons for flight. In short: we are in an age of hypermobility and states cannot cope with such volumes of ‘others’. This book presents an alternative view, drawing on theoretical insights from Third World Approaches to International Law, post- and decolonial studies, and presenting new research on the context of the British Empire. The text highlights the fact that since the early 1990s, for the first time, the majority of asylum seekers originate from countries outside of Europe, countries which until 30-60 years ago were under colonial rule. Policies which address asylum seekers must, the book argues, be understood not only as part of a global hypermobile present, but within the context of colonial histories.

Download or read book International Refugee Law written by Hne Lambert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays selected and reproduced in this volume explore how international refugee law is dynamic and constantly evolving. From an instrument designed to protect mostly those civilians fleeing the worse excesses of World War II, the 1951 Refugee Convention has developed into a set of principles, customary rules, and values that are now firmly embedded in the human rights framework, and are applicable to a far broader range of refugees. In addition, international refugee law has been affected by international humanitarian law and international criminal law (and vice versa). Thus, there is a reinforcing dynamic in the development of these complementary areas of law. At the same time, in recent decades states have shown a renewed interest in managing migration, thereby raising issues of how to reconcile such interests with refugee protection principles. In addition, the emergence of concepts of participation and responsibility to protect promise to have an impact on international refugee law.

Download or read book From House of Lords to Supreme Court written by James Lee and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2009 saw the centenary of the Society of Legal Scholars and the transition from the House of Lords to the new Supreme Court. The papers presented in this volume arise from a seminar organised jointly by the Society of Legal Scholars and the University of Birmingham to celebrate and consider these historic events. The papers examine judicial reasoning and the interaction between judges, academics and the professions in their shared task of interpretative development of the law. The volume gathers leading authorities on the House of Lords in its judicial capacity together with academics whose specialisms lie in particular fields of law, including tort, human rights, restitution, European law and private international law. The relationship between judge and jurist is, therefore, investigated from a variety of perspectives and with reference to different jurisdictions. The aim of the volume is to reflect upon the jurisprudence of the House of Lords and to consider the prospects for judging in the new Supreme Court.
