Förebered För Framtidens Klimatflyktingar Genom Att Fokusera På Nutidens Flyktingar Och Migranter, Matthew Scott

Matthew Scott

I presentationen diskuterar jag tre olika former av klimat relaterad migration och flykt och argumenterar för mer fokus på aktuella scenarier, befintliga rättsliga instrument och innovativa politiska lösningar. Om vi fokusera på dagens klimat relaterad migration och flykt, så kommer vi ätt vara bättre förberedda att agera till den förväntade ökningen utan att kompromissa Europas grundläggande principer med militariserade gränsvakter.

Lest we forget, the Lovings' story is, importantly, a story of migration: It's a story of the great lengths to which an interracial …

Non-Refoulement In A World Of Cooperative Deterrence, Thomas Gammeltoft-Hansen, James C. Hathaway

Articles

Developed states have what might charitably be called a schizophrenic attitude towards international refugee law. Determined to remain formally engaged with refugee law and yet unwavering in their commitment to avoid assuming their fair share of practical responsibilities under that regime, wealthier countries have embraced the politics of non-entrée, comprising efforts to keep refugees away from their territories but without formally resiling from treaty obligations. As the early generation of non-entrée practices — visa controls and carrier sanctions, the establishment of “international zones,” and high seas deterrence — have proved increasingly vulnerable to practical and legal challenges, new forms of …
