Must Israel Accept Syrian Refugees?, Michael Kagan
Scholarly Works
In this article, Professor Michael Kagan discusses Israel's policy to refuse asylum to "subjects of enemy or hostile states," in the context of a 2004 asylum case filed by a Syrian girl. A decade later, Israel has not accepted a single Syrian refugee. Professor Kagan examines the moral and legal responsibilities of Israel and how they conflict with its current policy.
