Book Synopsis Reconnaissance Au Canada Du Statut de Réfugié by : W. Gunther Plaut
Download or read book Reconnaissance Au Canada Du Statut de Réfugié written by W. Gunther Plaut and published by Employment and Immigration Canada. This book was released on 1985 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Report, published in both English and French, analyses the existing refugee determination process in Canada and proposes three models for a new determination process so that Canada may more effectively fulfil its moral and legal obligations. As the 1951 UN Refugee Convention specifies no procedure for determining refugee status, Canada and other states parties to the Convention have developed their own internal procedure to meet their obligations. The Canadian Immigration Act of 1976 gives legislative force to the major provisions of the Convention. Sweeping changes, however, are required in Canadian legislation which concerns refugee determination. With regard to the refugee definition, Canadian legislation does not include any of the exclusion and cessation clauses in the Convention. The author recommends that all such clauses in the Convention be incorporated into Canadian law. The Report lists six major problems with the refugee determination process in Canada. The process is unduly long; there are no oral hearings by decision-makers; interpreters are of poor quality; access to the process is too restricted; there are inadequate sources of information available for decision-makers to evaluate the existence of a 'well-founded fear'; and there is a misuse of human resources. The author submits proposals to rectify these deficiencies. He introduces and evaluates three cost-efficient models for a new determination process. Each of the models provides for: a refugee officer to be the claimant's liaison with both the Canada Employment and Immigration Commission and the determination process; an independent refugee board to make the initial decision after an oral hearing; and appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal. The author suggests that Canada expand employment eligibility for refugees and implement a policy of immediate family reunification for all recognized refugees. He also recommends that claimants receive welfare assistance and legal aid and be guaranteed the right to have counsel present at all examinations conducted before the inquiry. The Report notes that the number of refugees Canada is asked to admit is small compared to the vastness of its land and resources.

Book Synopsis Regional Approaches to the Protection of Asylum Seekers by : Ademola Abass
Download or read book Regional Approaches to the Protection of Asylum Seekers written by Ademola Abass and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive assessment of regional responses to the crisis in the asylum/refugee system and critically examines how different regions tackle the problem. The chapters consider the fundamental challenges which undermine an effective asylum process as well as regional difficulties with the various circumstances surrounding asylum seekers. With contributions on Africa, Europe, Latin America, South Asia and the Middle East, and the Pacific, the collection strives to appreciate what informs each region’s approach to the asylum process and asks if there are issues common to every region and if regions can learn from one another. The book seeks an understanding of the existing legal regime for the protection of asylum seekers and how regional institutions such as human rights commissions and regional courts enforce and adjudicate the law. The volume will be valuable to those interested in international law, migration and human rights.

Book Synopsis The Refugee in International Law by : Guy S. Goodwin-Gill
Download or read book The Refugee in International Law written by Guy S. Goodwin-Gill and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The status of the refugee in international law, and of everyone entitled to protection, has ever been precarious, not least in times of heightened and heated debate: people have always moved in search of safety, and they always will. In this completely revised and updated edition, the authors cast new light on the refugee definition, the meaning of persecution, including with regard to gender and sexual orientation, and the protection due to refugees and those affected by statelessness or disasters. They review the fundamental principle of non-refoulement as a restraint on the conduct of States, even as States themselves seek new ways to prevent the arrival of those in search of refuge. Related principles of protection—non-discrimination, due process, rescue at sea, and solutions— are analysed in light of the actual practice of States, UNHCR, and treaty-monitoring bodies. The authors closely examine relevant international standards, and the role of UNHCR, States, and civil society, in providing protection, contributing to the development of international refugee law, and promoting solutions. New chapters focus on the evolving rules on nationality, statelessness, and displacement due to disasters and climate change. This expanded edition factors in the challenges posed by the movement of people across land and sea in search of refuge, and their interception, reception, and later treatment. The overall aim remains the same as in previous editions: to provide a sound basis for protection in international law, taking full account of State and community interests and recognizing the need to bridge gaps in the regime which now has 100 years of law and practice behind it.

Book Synopsis Human Security and Human Rights under International Law by : Dorothy Estrada-Tanck
Download or read book Human Security and Human Rights under International Law written by Dorothy Estrada-Tanck and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human security provides one of the most important protections; a person-centred axis of freedom from fear, from want and to live with dignity. It is surprising given its centrality to the human experience, that its connection with human rights has not yet been explored in a truly systematic way. This important new book addresses that gap in the literature by analysing whether human security might provide the tools for an expansive and integrated interpretation of international human rights. The examination takes a two-part approach. Firstly, it evaluates convergences between human security and all human rights – civil, political, economic, social and cultural – and constructs an investigative framework focused on the human security-human rights synergy. It then goes on to explore its practical application in the thematic cores of violence against women and undocumented migrants in the law and case-law of UN, European, Inter-American and African human rights bodies. It takes both a legal and interdisciplinary approach, recognising that human security and its relationship with human rights cuts across disciplinary boundaries. Innovative and rigorous, this is an important contribution to human rights scholarship.
