Global Changes in Asylum Regimes (Migration, Minorities and Citizenship)

"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.
