Legal Responses To The European Union’S Migration Crisis, Graham Butler
Legal Responses To The European Union’S Migration Crisis, Graham Butler
San Diego International Law Journal
The European Union (“EU”) imposes on itself its own constraints in which it performs as an external actor, and yet, there is little acknowledgment of this imposed constraint. It is the post-2015 migration crisis, an unexpected occurrence, which has brought the fields of EU external relation law and EU migration law together.

Rethinking The Role Of Politics In United States Immigration Law: The Helsinki Accords And Ideological Exclusion Of Aliens, Carlos Ortiz Miranda

Congress temporarily suspended the ideological provisions until March 1, 1989 to allow for further comprehensive and permanent revisions in the area of deportation and exclusion. The Article is intended to contribute to the ongoing dialogue concerning such permanent and much needed changes.
