DOWNLOAD EBOOKCommunity asylum law is becoming ever more essential to asylum law in Europe. But many intricate questions about this new body of law remain to be resolved. Do the Community rules weaken or improve the position of asylum seekers? Would a future Community asylum law have to observe international norms? What role should the Court of Justice play in asylum matters? And does the communautarisation of asylum law affect the possibilities of asylum seekers to approach domestic courts, or the European Court of Human Rights? These and other questions are addressed in this book. It offers, besides an in-depth study of the relation between European and international asylum law, a practical manual for European asylum law. It discusses the content and meaning of all Community regulations and directives on asylum, as well as their possible use (and reliability) in domestic proceedings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book contributes to a long-standing but ever topical debate about whether persons fleeing war to seek asylum in another country – ‘war refugees’ – are protected by international law. It seeks to add to this debate by bringing together a detailed set of analyses examining the extent to which the application of international humanitarian law (IHL) may usefully advance the legal protection of such persons. This generates a range of questions about the respective protection frameworks established under international refugee law and IHL and, specifically, the potential for interaction between them. As the first collection to deal with the subject, the eighteen chapters that make up this unique volume supply a range of perspectives on how the relationship between these two separate fields of law may be articulated and whether IHL may contribute to providing refuge from the inhumanity of war.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe 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 EBOOKThe book is designed to provide an overview of the development, meaning, and nature of international refugee law. The jurisprudence on the status of refugees, loss and denial of the refugees status, non-refoulement, asylum, problems and challenges of refugee protection, the law of return and the right of return, critical refugees and immigration law, and the role of international organizations in protection of refugees are revisited in the context of contemporary realities.

This lucidly written and timely book will be immensely helpful to anyone grappling with the demonstrated inadequacies of international refugee law in real life situations today and desirous of the reorientation of its meaning and scope to cater for the changing needs and shared expectation of the international community in the 21st century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStep into the heart of one of the most pressing issues of our time with Rawan Diab's book, "The Right to Asylum in International Law and Legal Philosophy - The Syrian Conflict and Refugee Crisis." Diab navigates the intricate web of migration, shedding light on the historical, political, and philosophical dimensions that have shaped our world with particular reference to the Syrian Conflict and refugee crisis. In a century marked by unprecedented global migration, Diab delves into the myriad challenges faced by individuals seeking refuge from extreme poverty, internal conflicts, and environmental disasters. Focusing on the Syrian conflict and the refugee crisis, this book provides a profound examination of the factors driving migration, the evolving landscape of international law, and the philosophical underpinnings of open borders. Diab's work confronts the stark realities faced by asylum seekers, particularly those from regions like Syria, Libya, Iraq, Somalia, and Azerbaijan. The author scrutinizes the complexities of migration policies, the reluctance of "modern States" to open their borders, and the poignant struggles of those who seek safety and security. With a meticulous analytical approach, the book addresses pivotal questions surrounding the right to leave, the right to stay, and the future of global migration policies. From the legal foundations outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to the intricate workings of the principle of non-refoulement, Diab weaves a comprehensive narrative that engages scholars, policymakers, and concerned citizens alike. "The Right to Asylum in International Law and Legal Philosophy" is not just a book; it's a journey into the heart of human rights, justice, and the very fabric of our interconnected world. Rawan Diab invites you to explore, learn, and be part of the discourse shaping the future of migration. Order your copy today and become a participant in this vital conversation.
