Title: Global Changes in Asylum Regimes (Migration, Minorities and Citizenship)
Description: "Through the examination of key issues and regional studies this book argues that asylum regimes throughout the world display convergent trends. It links human rights and asylum; it explodes the myth of international protection; it analyzes temporary protection based on the European model; it draws lessons from international protection in Kosovo; it evaluates European Union harmonization initiatives; it stresses the role of refugees as social actors; it develops the complexity of gender and refugee women's issues; it maps out theoretical and policy issues relating to return in Africa; it explores the relationships between asylum law and global liberal governance; and it demonstrates the changing role of human rights organizations."--Jacket.
