Asylum Law and Practice

Landmark Cases

This volume examines judicial decisions that have shaped the law of asylum and refugee protection.

Each chapter analyses a single judicial decision and locates it in a wider legal, political and policy context, tracing its subsequent impact on refugee law and policy. Some of the decisions analysed in this collection were foundational in establishing the reach of refugee law, particularly in defining the scope of the refugee definition. Others engage with key areas of refugee rights in contexts which indicate a critical turning point in state refugee policy, such as interdiction of boats at sea, encampment and extraterritorial asylum processing mechanisms. The contributions demonstrate how refugee protection is shaped by the intersection of different fields of law, including refugee law, human rights law, and domestic constitutional provisions.

Reflecting this complexity, the collection explores decisions from the UK, Canada, USA, Kenya, Australia and Papua New Guinea, as well as regional courts including the European Court of Human Rights, Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the Court of Justice of the European Union, and decisions of the United Nations Human Rights treaty bodies. Authors include leading academics and practitioners in refugee and human rights law from a range of jurisdictions.

This book offers compelling insights for anyone with an interest in international refugee protection, human rights, and the development of international refugee law.

They arrived in America as refugees with nothing more than the clothes on their backs. And now, after years of hard work, they live in the most exclusive neighbourhood, their growing family attending the most prestigious schools. Zorah, the eldest daughter, is the apple of her father's eye. But when Zorah dies in an unthinkable tragedy, the family is thrust into the court of public opinion. There is talk that the Sharafs' happy household was anything but, and soon the veneer of the model immigrant family starts to crumble. Those who knew her best - and those who never met her - all have an opinion on who Zorah really was, and what really happened to her . . . Told through the chorus of voices surrounding the Sharafs, Good People is a riveting, provocative and unforgettable story of community, family and identity. ___________________________________________________________________________ 'THRILLING AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING' ECONOMIST 'PROPULSIVE' SUNDAY INDEPENDENT 'BRILLIANT' MONICA ALI 'ADDICTIVELY READABLE' STYLIST 'A BLINDER OF A DEBUT' IRISH INDEPENDENT 'GRIPPING AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING' LOUISE O'NEILL 'A CLEVER WHODUNNIT' RED 'UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE YOU'LL READ THIS YEAR' ANNA BAILEY 'THRILLING AND ADDICTIVE' INEWS 'ABSOLUTELY RIVETING' EMMA VAN STRAATEN

Migrant Entrepreneurship in the Digital Economy

Schriften zum Migrationsrecht

As Europe's migration system becomes increasingly digital, vast amounts of biometric and personal data are collected and shared across interconnected EU databases. But how can an asylum seeker or irregular migrant access, correct, or erase their data within this complex web? This book explores access to justice in the interoperable Eurodac system, examining rights to information, data access, rectification, erasure, and effective remedy. It highlights key data protection and due process challenges in this digitised system and extends the analysis beyond the EU, considering implementation in Schengen/Dublin-associated states like Switzerland and developments in EU accession countries integrated into the EU's migration data framework.

Studies in International Law

This book explores the human right to leave any country - including one's own - in international law, and its applicability to externalised migration control. It develops a framework for interpreting the right and demonstrates how various externalisation measures violate it, leading to the international responsibility of states and international organisations. Analysing the work of international and regional systems enshrining the right and examining global externalisation practices, it demonstrates the radical reform required by states and international organisations to comply with the right to leave. Implementing the author's recommendations would compel the dismantlement of many current externalisation strategies and a re-imagining of the global (im)mobility regime. This book offers compelling insights for lawyers in the fields of international law, human rights and refugee law, as well as migration policymakers, practitioners and officials.

Protecting the Right to Leave in an Era of Externalised Migration Control

The UK and Global Citizenship Law

What can one city tell us about the global textile waste problem? This Open Access study is the first detailed ethnography of clothing waste infrastructures that starts where the problem starts - the Global North. Based on more than 100 interviews, cultural anthropologist Heike Derwanz follows the journey of fast fashion in Hamburg, Germany: starting with two women from different socio-economic backgrounds sorting through their wardrobes, travelling through local flea markets, eBay, church clothes banks, upcycling brands and recycling sites, only to end up in homes and waste heaps in the Global South. Bringing together human agents such as designers, social workers and vintage sellers with objects from containers, plastic sacks and internet platforms to piles of sorted textiles, this on-the-ground cultural study reveals how the global economic system of fast fashion shapes local infrastructures entangled in everyday lives. Combining material culture, waste studies and economic perspectives to scrutinize the so-called circular economy of today's global textile recycling market, Derwanz investigates what agency modern consumers really have in the lifecycle of their clothes.

Palgrave's Critical Policing Studies

<div>“The book’s focus on institutional harm is a refreshing approach, overcoming the customary focus on individual responsibility to foreground how the historic processes of racialized policing continue to undermine the everyday lives of Black British peoples including their ability to integrate. This study crosses disciplinary boundaries giving it wide appeal beyond academia, to include activists, policymakers, teachers, and anyone with an interest in understanding what it means to be criminalized and surveilled.”</div>
<div>-Dr Esmorie J. Miller, Lancaster University, School of Sciences, UK</div>
This book explores the historical and contemporary policing of Black communities in Britain, revealing how much has — and hasn’t — changed. Drawing on 58 interviews with young people, elders, and community workers in a heavily policed North London neighbourhood, it offers a powerful, intergenerational account of racialised policing and its everyday consequences. Through an intersectional lens, it examines how race, gender, class, and place overlap to shape Black Britons’ encounters with police and their sense of belonging. Through the voices of those most affected, the book traces how these experiences have produced enduring cultural narratives of mistrust, resistance, and exclusion. Exposing how policing continues to racialise and criminalise certain communities designated suspect status, it connects these practices to the legacies of empire and the politics of othering. It concludes by considering what these histories mean for the present and future of police-community relations and offers practical recommendations for building trust, accountability, and justice.

Black Britons, Race, and Policing

'Jaw-dropping' The Economist 'A mind-altering and unforgettable read' Adam Tooze 'If you wish to know how the world really works, read this book' Misha Glenny A globe-trotting investigation into the catastrophic reality of the multi-billion-dollar global garbage trade. Dumps and landfills around the world are overflowing. The millions of tonnes of garbage generated every day have given rise to waste wars, cons and cover ups across thousands of miles and multiple oceans. And few people have any idea they're happening. Roaming across five continents, Alexander Clapp delves deep inside the world of Javanese recycling gangsters, cruise ship dismantlers in the Aegean, Tanzanian plastic pickers, whistle-blowing environmentalists in the jungles of Guatemala, and a community of Ghanaian boys who burn Western cellphones and televisions for cents an hour. He reveals how most of our trash actually lives a secret second life, getting shipped, smuggled or dumped from one country onto another, with devastating consequences for the poorest nations of the world. Waste Wars is a jaw-dropping exposé of how and why, for the last forty years, our garbage has spawned a massive global black market, one that offloads our consumption footprints onto distant continents, pristine landscapes, and unsuspecting populations.

Waste Wars

A provocative new theory of "the economy," its history, and its politics that better unites history and economics What is the economy, really? Is it a "market sector," a "general equilibrium," or the "gross domestic product"? Economics today has become so preoccupied with methods that economists risk losing sight of the economy itself. Meanwhile, other disciplines, although often intent on criticizing the methods of economics, have failed to articulate an alternative vision of the economy. Before the ascent of postwar neoclassical economics, fierce debates raged, as many different visions of the economy circulated and competed with one another. In The Real Economy, Jonathan Levy returns to the spirit of this earlier era, which, in all its contentiousness, gave birth to the discipline of economics. Drawing inspiration particularly from Thorstein Veblen and John Maynard Keynes, Levy proposes a theory of the economy that is open to rich empirical and historical scrutiny, covering topics that include the emergence of capitalism, the notion of radical uncertainty, the meaning of demand, the primal desire for money, the history of corporations, and contemporary globalization. Writing for anyone interested in the study of the economy, Levy provides an invaluable provocation for a broader debate in the social sciences and humanities concerning what "the economy" is.

History and Theory

The Real Economy

'This book did nothing less than make me re-see the world . . . Original, and very clever' - Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland Borders draw one map of the world; money draws another. A journalist's riveting account exposes a parallel universe exempt from the laws of the land, and how the wealthy and powerful benefit from it. The map of the globe shows the world we think we know: sovereign nations that grant and restrict their citizens' rights. Beneath, above, and tucked inside its neatly delineated borders, however, a parallel universe has been engineered into existence, consisting of thousands of extraterritorial zones that operate largely autonomously, increasingly for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful. Atossa Abrahamian traces the rise of the hidden globe to thirteenth-century Switzerland, where poor cantons marketed the commodity they had - bodies, in the form of mercenary fighters. Following its evolution around the world, she reveals how prize-winning economists, eccentric theorists, visionary statesmen, and consultants masterminded its export in the form of free trade zones, flags of convenience, offshore detention centres where immigrants languish in limbo, and charter cities controlled by foreign governments and multinational corporations - and even into outer space, where tiny Luxembourg aspires to mining rights on asteroids. By mapping the hidden geography that decides who wins and who loses in this new global order - and how it might be otherwise - The Hidden Globe fascinates, enrages, and inspires. 'Vivid, revelatory' - The New Yorker 'Atossa Abrahamian boldly renews our sense of reality and brilliantly illuminates our political impasse' - Pankaj Mishra, author of The Age of Anger
