Short description:
The first global and comparative study of litigation in which refugees seek protection from a place of ostensible 'refuge'.
MoreLong description:
The places in which refugees seek sanctuary are often as dangerous and bleak as the conditions they fled. In response, many travel within and across borders in search of safety. As part of these journeys, refugees are increasingly turning to courts to ask for protection, not from persecution in their homeland, but from a place of 'refuge'. This book is the first global and comparative study of 'protection from refuge' litigation, examining whether courts facilitate or hamper refugee journeys with a particular focus on gender. Drawing on jurisprudence from Africa, Europe, North America and Oceania, Kate Ogg shows that courts have transitioned from adopting robust ideas of refuge to rudimentary ones. This trajectory indicates that courts can play a powerful role in creating more just and equitable refugee protection policies, but have, ultimately, compounded the difficulties inherent in finding sanctuary, perpetuating global inequities in refugee responsibility and rendering refuge elusive.
'Protection from Refuge is a masterful study of litigation in refugees' journeys, vividly illustrating how demands for sanctuary inevitably reach well beyond mere survival. In doing so, Ogg's insightful contribution provides a critical rejoinder to recent pessimism about law in countering border violence. Her sophisticated work will therefore prove crucial both for theoretical scholars and for strategic practitioners.' Itamar Mann, Professor of Law, University of Haifa
