Welcoming the Stranger

Hospitality, Sovereignty and the Law of Migration

Routledge Research in Asylum, Migration and Refugee Law

The Refugee Convention of 1951 did not categorically provide for the socio-economic rights of asylum seekers. While the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Executive Committee has subsequently attempted to address these shortcomings, they have not categorically stated whether those seeking asylum still enjoy socio-economic rights recognised under human rights treaties provisions. This book explores the tensions between seemingly universal socio-economic rights and the justification or legitimisation of differences in meeting these rights between citizens and those claiming asylum. The book provides an examination of the normative content of a number of core socio-economic rights for asylum seekers, in particular the right to food, water and shelter, right to health and the right to a decent standard of living. The book analyses the socio-economic rights of asylum seekers under internationalised legal mechanisms including the UN system of human rights protection, the European Union, and the Council of Europe. It questions the legitimacy of differentiation towards the socio-economic of asylum seekers that has been adopted by many states, and presents a persuasive argument as to the inclusivity of socio-economic rights for asylum seekers, while recognising the limits of human rights in this regard.

The Socio-Economic Rights of Asylum Seekers

A comprehensive guide to U.S. visas and green cards, covering both eligibility and practical steps toward obtaining the desired benefit. Readers will learn how the U.S. immigration bureaucracy functions (or malfunctions) and whether they potentially qualify for a green card based on family or work; a temporary visa for tourism, study, work, or a cultural exchange; or another program or remedy, such as asylum or a U visa. Useful for both would-be immigrants and those who assist them.

U.S. Immigration Made Easy

If you want to know more about living trusts, this book is here to help. Make Your Living Trust gives you straightforward and easy-to-understand information about how living trusts: <ul> <li>compare to wills</li> <li>pass property to beneficiaries without probate</li> <li>provide for minor children, and</li> <li>help protect against unexpected incapacity.</li> </ul> You might have heard about living trusts and have a general sense that you should make one. But if you're like most people, you're not exactly sure why or how to do it. If this sounds like you, Make Your Living Trust provides the information and support you need to make informed estate planning decisions. For many people, living trusts are a useful tool to keep their property out of probate. This makes a lot of sense because probate often makes the process of wrapping up an estate more complicated and expensive than it needs to be. And there are other reasons to make a living trust -- a living trust allows you to authorize someone to take care of your property in case of incapacity, and (unlike wills) living trusts keep your personal business private. That said, not everyone needs a living trust. Many people need only a will and a durable power of attorney. Others might use those in conjunction with pay-on-death accounts or transfer-on-death deeds. Compared to other estate planning tools, living trusts can be more expensive to create and more complicated to live with. So, you don't want to go through the trouble and expense of making one if you don't need to. Make Your Living Trust helps you think through these and many other trust-related issues. For example, it helps you weigh the pros and cons of making a living trust yourself versus having an attorney draw one up. It also covers questions that might come up as you make a living trust (with or without a lawyer), like: <ul> <li>What types of property work well in a living trust?</li> <li>Can you and your spouse make a living trust together?</li> <li>What is the role of a successor trustee?</li> <li>Who decides when minor children receive their inheritance?</li> <li>How do you transfer property into your living trust?</li> <li>What makes a living trust legal?</li> <li>Where should you store your living trust?</li> <li>Do you have to register your trust or share it with your family?</li> <li>What other estate planning documents might you need?</li> </ul> Make Your Living Trust can help with all of this and more. It will be your steady companion as you learn about wills and trusts and start to craft your estate plan.

Make Your Living Trust

Routledge Research in Media Law

This book considers whether news gatherers should be required to disclose the identity of anonymous sources used in their stories by courts or other bodies. The vast majority of media self-regulatory codes impose an obligation not to disclose the identity of such sources, but many legal systems have traditionally been reluctant to offer such a degree of protection to anonymous sources, or any at all. However, the latter part of the twentieth century and early twenty-first century has seen an explosion in the number of such 'source protection' laws, and much judicial and legislative activity to change existing laws.Drawing on media and communications theories the book identifies a number of different theoretical justifications for source protection laws and analyzes whether the application of existing laws are consistent with any of these theories. Using legal materials and codes from a wide variety of countries it considers whether there are any noticeable trends in how different countries address this issue. It explores the influence of the United States and the European Court of Human Rights' jurisprudence on the matter beyond their jurisdictions, and asks the question whether this is an area of law captured by 'globalisation,' or whether countries with different constitutional and media traditions have developed different approaches to 'source protection.'Finally having assess the arguments in support of source protection laws Damian Carney puts forward a model clause and model shield law for the protection of anonymous sources which is theoretically and practically robust.

Hart Studies on Contested Legalities

This book confronts a pressing and unsettling development at the intersection of law, sovereignty, and Indigenous rights: the growing entanglement between Indigenous legal traditions and sovereign citizen pseudolaw. Bringing together leading scholars from law, anthropology, Indigenous studies, and related disciplines, the volume exposes how pseudolegal movements increasingly appropriate the language and symbolism of Indigenous sovereignty to advance anti-state and conspiratorial agendas. The collection shows that this appropriation is not confined to non-Indigenous actors. In contexts of long-standing injustice and frustration with state institutions, some Indigenous individuals are also drawn to sovereign citizen arguments that promise autonomy or escape from state authority. Through careful analysis, the contributors explain why these claims may appear attractive, while demonstrating that they rest on legal fantasies fundamentally at odds with Indigenous legal orders. Where Indigenous laws are collective, relational, and grounded in responsibilities to land and community, pseudolaw is individualistic, property-centred, and rooted in settler-colonial entitlement. As the first scholarly collection to systematically address this phenomenon, the volume calls for renewed intellectual clarity and sustained engagement between academics, legal practitioners, and Indigenous communities. The book traces how pseudolaw repackages older colonial strategies of appropriation and erasure in new forms. It reveals the tangible harms these entanglements cause: legal confusion, political vulnerability, and the erosion of the credibility of genuine Indigenous sovereignty claims. It offers a powerful warning about the dangers of pseudolaw and a compelling case for strengthening Indigenous-led pathways to justice, self-governance, and sovereignty.

Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond? This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.

Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

This book offers the first comprehensive study of quasi-judicial bodies and their operation in international law. What are quasi-judicial bodies as a formulation in international law? Though these are currently legion at the international level, there is yet to be a rigorous analysis of them as a category. This book fills this gap by setting out a comprehensive and detailed map of this quasi-judicial terrain. Taking a comparative approach, it looks at the form and function of these bodies, as well as commenting on their effectiveness. It goes further to explore their understanding at the domestic and international court level. This is a fascinating study that will be of interest to all scholars of international courts and institutions.
