Beskrivning
Children are the victims of some of the most devastating examples of state-sanctioned and private human rights abuse. In increasing numbers, they are attempting to find international protection, and are forced to navigate complex administrative and legal processes that fail to take into account their distinct needs and vulnerabilities. The key challenges they face in establishing entitlement to refugee protection are their invisibility and the risk of incorrect assessment. Drawing on an extensive and original analysis of jurisprudence of leading common law jurisdictions, this book undertakes an assessment of the extent to which these challenges may be overcome by greater engagement between international refugee law and international law on the rights of the child. The result is the first comprehensive study on the manner in which these two mutually reinforcing legal regimes can interact to strengthen the protection of refugee children.

Recensioner i media

'This book is an exceptional contribution to international refugee law; it displays originality and rigour throughout. It is a remarkable achievement and a major scholarly intervention in ongoing conversations about the future direction of international refugee law. The arguments advanced will have a profound impact on the approach to the relationship between international human rights law and refugee law, and will assist in reshaping legal and policy responses.' Colin Harvey, Queen's University, Belfast
