The Refugees Convention 50 years on : globalisation and international law Edited by Susan Kneebone Published by Ashgate (2003) |
Book description
The authors of the essays in this collection, all
internationally recognised refugee scholars and practitioners, look at the
controversial 'hot' topic of refugee rights. They consider whether, 50 years
after its agreement, the Refugees' Convention can provide an adequate framework
for protection. In particular, the authors address the effect of globalisation
upon the human rights of asylum seekers and refugees, the efficacy of the
Convention as an instrument of International Law, the role of the UNHCR, whether
NGOs are effective instruments for change, nationality and citizenship issues,
and
consider alternatives and options for solutions to the global refugee problem.
Contributing to constructive dialogue and debate on the issue, the volume will
be invaluable for scholars, practitioners and officials working in this area.
