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.

Book excerpt: Le présent ouvrage est le résultat du programme international de recherche Mondialisation, Migration et Droits de l'Homme financé par le Réseau universitaire international de Genève (RUIG). Le programme a eu lieu dans le cadre d'un partenariat entre la Faculté de psychologie et des sciences de l'éducation de l'Université de Genève (FPSE) et l'Institut universitaire de hautes études internationales (IUHEI), avec la contribution de l'Académie de droit international humanitaire et des droits humains à Genève, l'Institut d'études politiques et internationales de l'Université de Lausanne (IEPI), le Bureau international du Travail (BIT) et le Haut Commissariat des Nations Unies pour les réfugiés (HCR). La recherche intervient à un moment crucial. La migration est placée au coeur de tous les agendas internationaux et nationaux. Les multiples initiatives lancées au sein des Nations Unies, de l'Union européenne et de divers autres forums multilatéraux en témoignent. Elle a réuni durant deux ans (2004-2006) 46 chercheurs provenant de diverses disciplines et régions du monde. Les chercheurs ont intégré une donnée essentielle souvent déniée de la migration : les besoins fondamentaux et le respect des droits de l'homme du migrant. Le contenu de la recherche repose sur deux axes essentiels : un volet « société » (volume I), à vocation pluridisciplinaire, et un volet « droit » (volume II),consacré au droit international des migrations. Chacun de ces axes fait l'objet d'une publication distincte. Le volume II a été réalisé sous la direction de Vincent Chetail. Il procède à une évaluation d'ensemble d'un domaine encore méconnu et souvent négligé des sciences juridiques : le droit international des migrations. La migration permet mieux que tout autre phénomène social de saisir la vie du droit international, ses points de rupture et la dynamique qui l'anime. La présente publication s'interroge sur la place et l'effectivité des droits fondamentaux des migrants, en prenant pour appui le droit international existant, ses failles et ses orientations possibles. L'étude a été réalisée, à cette fin, autour de quatre pistes de réflexion. Une première partie retrace les principes et perspectives du droit international des migrations, dans ses dimensions historiques, conceptuelles et normatives. La deuxième partie est consacrée à l'un des principaux enjeux de notre temps : la question sécuritaire au sens large et la migration dite irrégulière qui lui est si souvent associée. Les régimes spécifiques de protection internationale pour les travailleurs migrants et les réfugiés sont également l'objet d'un examen à part entière, tandis que la dernière partie est dédiée à l'un des domaines où les violations des droits de l'homme sont les plus fréquentes : la détention et le renvoi des migrants. L'Académie de droit international humanitaire et des droits humains à Genève (anciennement Centre universitaire de droit international humanitaire) a été créé par une convention passée en juillet 2002 entre la Faculté de droit de l'Université de Genève et l'Institut universitaire de hautes études internationales. L'Université de Lausanne et le Comité international de la Croix-Rouge contribuent à la réalisation de ses objectifs. La mission de l'Académie porte principalement sur l'enseignement supérieur et la recherche académique dans les domaines suivants : le droit international humanitaire, les droits de l'homme, le droit de la sécurité collective et du maintien de la paix, le droit pénal international, ainsi que le droit des réfugiés et des personnes déplacées.

Download or read book Forced Migration Human Rights and Security written by Jane McAdam and published by Hart Publishing. This book was released on 2008-03-14 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international protection regime for refugees and other forced migrants seems increasingly at risk as measures designed to enhance security-of borders, of people, of institutions, and of national identity-encroach upon human rights. This timely edited collection responds to some of the contemporary challenges faced by the international protection regime, with a particular focus on the human rights of those displaced. The book begins by assessing the impact of anti-terrorism laws on refugee status, both at the international and domestic levels, before turning to examine the function of offshore immigration control mechanisms and extraterritorial processing on asylum seekers' access to territory and entitlements (both procedural and substantive). It considers the particular needs and rights of children as forced migrants, but also as children; the role of human rights law in protecting religious minorities in the context of debates about national identity; the approaches of refugee decision-makers in assessing the credibility of evidence; and the scope for an international judicial commission to provide consistent interpretative guidance on refugee law, so as to overcome (or at least diminish) the currently diverse and sometimes conflicting approaches of national courts. The last part of the book examines the status of people who benefit from 'complementary protection'-such as those who cannot be removed from a country because they face a risk of torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment-and the scope for the broader concept of the 'responsibility to protect' to address gaps in the international protection regime.

Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage sur le droit international de la migration est novateur à plus d'un titre : il est le premier ouvrage de ce type rédigé en langue française ; il constitue un véritable traité de droit international de la migration, présentant sous une forme concise et accessible ses multiples facettes ; il est écrit non seulement par des juristes spécialistes de la migration internationale, mais aussi par des économistes et des démographes. A ceux qui considèrent que la migration relève exclusivement du droit national et que le droit international est muet ou, au mieux, lacunaire, cet ouvrage apporte un démenti catégorique. Au fil des décennies, le droit international de la migration s'est transformé en une branche du droit dont la richesse et la diversité sont probablement sans équivalent : citons notamment les droits de l'homme ; le droit économique ; le droit de la nationalité ; certains aspects du droit de la mer ; le droit des réfugiés ; le droit des travailleurs migrants ; la traite des personnes et le trafic illicite de migrants ; la souveraineté de l'Etat et le droit de défendre ses frontières, d'admettre et d'expulser les étrangers ; la coopération internationale. Même si l'ensemble ne forme pas encore un tout cohérent et homogène, cet ouvrage assemble les diverses pièces du puzzle, expose les concepts et principes essentiels, les illustre au travers d'exemples concrets, et les complète par des bibliographies sélectives et un glossaire précieux. Cet ouvrage s'adresse en particulier aux fonctionnaires traitant de questions migratoires aux niveaux national et international, ainsi qu'aux étudiants et professeurs attirés par une étude pluridisciplinaire de la matière ; il intéresse également toute personne souhaitant mieux comprendre la migration sous ses aspects juridiques internationaux, car le droit international de la migration est un droit dynamique, en évolution constante, aux contours parfois flous, un droit certes imparfait mais nécessaire pour mieux appréhender et gérer un des problèmes les plus aigus de notre temps.

Download or read book Historical Archaeologies of Transhumance across Europe written by Eugene Costello and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transhumance is a form of pastoralism that has been practised around the world since animals were first domesticated. Such seasonal movements have formed an important aspect of many European farming systems for several thousand years, although they have declined markedly since the nineteenth century. Ethnographers and geographers have long been involved in recording transhumant practices, and in the last two decades archaeologists have started to add a new material dimension to the subject. This volume brings together recent advances in the study of European transhumance during historical times, from Sweden to Spain, Romania to Ireland, and beyond that even Newfoundland. While the focus is on the archaeology of seasonal sites used by shepherds and cowherds, the contributions exhibit a high degree of interdisciplinarity. Documentary, cartographic, ethnographic and palaeoecological evidence all play a part in the examination of seasonal movement and settlement in medieval and post-medieval landscapes. Notwithstanding the obvious diversity across Europe in terms of livestock, distances travelled and socio-economic context, an extended introduction to the volume shows that cross-cutting themes are now emerging, including mobility, gendered herding, collective land-use, the agency of non-elite people and competition for grazing and markets. The book will appeal not only to archaeologists, but to historians, geographers, ethnographers, palaeoecologists and anyone interested in rural lifeways across Europe.
Download or read book The Mediterranean region under climate change written by Collectif and published by IRD Éditions. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been published by Allenvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research) to coincide with the 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakesh. It is the outcome of work by academic researchers on both sides of the Mediterranean and provides a remarkable scientific review of the mechanisms of climate change and its impacts on the environment, the economy, health and Mediterranean societies. It will also be valuable in developing responses that draw on “scientific evidence” to address the issues of adaptation, resource conservation, solutions and risk prevention. Reflecting the full complexity of the Mediterranean environment, the book is a major scientific contribution to the climate issue, where various scientific considerations converge to break down the boundaries between disciplines.
Download or read book Modern Peoplehood written by John Lie and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[A] most impressive achievement by an extraordinarily intelligent, courageous, and—that goes without saying—'well-read' mind. The scope of this work is enormous: it provides no less than a comprehensive, historically grounded theory of 'modern peoplehood,' which is Lie’s felicitous umbrella term for everything that goes under the names 'race,' 'ethnicity,' and nationality.'" Christian Joppke, American Journal of Sociology "Lie's objective is to treat a series of large topics that he sees as related but that are usually treated separately: the social construction of identities, the origins and nature of modern nationalism, the explanation of genocide, and racism. These multiple themes are for him aspects of something he calls 'modern peoplehood.' His mode of demonstration is to review all the alternative explanations for each phenomenon, and to show why each successively is inadequate. His own theses are controversial but he makes a strong case for them. This book should renew debate." Immanuel Wallerstein, Yale University and author of The Decline of American Power: The U.S. in a Chaotic World
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of European Legal History written by Heikki Pihlajamäki and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 1217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European law, including both civil law and common law, has gone through several major phases of expansion in the world. European legal history thus also is a history of legal transplants and cultural borrowings, which national legal histories as products of nineteenth-century historicism have until recently largely left unconsidered. The Handbook of European Legal History supplies its readers with an overview of the different phases of European legal history in the light of today's state-of-the-art research, by offering cutting-edge views on research questions currently emerging in international discussions. The Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter both nationally and systemically. Unlike traditional European legal histories, which tend to concentrate on "heartlands" of Europe (notably Italy and Germany), the Europe of the Handbook is more versatile and nuanced, taking into consideration the legal developments in Europe's geographical "fringes" such as Scandinavia and Eastern Europe. The Handbook covers all major time periods, from the ancient Greek law to the twenty-first century. Contributors include acknowledged leaders in the field as well as rising talents, representing a wide range of legal systems, methodologies, areas of expertise and research agendas.
