From the Bookshelves: The Refugee in International Law (4th edition)
To celebrate the US release of the fourth edition of The Refugee in International Law, the Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law invites you to join us for a discussion with Guy S Goodwin-Gill and Emma Dunlop about the practice of refugee law today, with Arif Hussein of the Refugee Advice and Casework Service (RACS).
How is refugee status determined around the world amid changing social pressures? What are the trends in protection in different jurisdictions? What legal questions arise when restrictive policies mean that access to asylum is blocked, rights are curtailed, and people cannot access fair status determination procedures?
