Beskrivning
Achieving a more fair and equitable sharing of refugee protection responsibilities between states has been a perennial challenge of the global refugee regime. The Refugee Convention did not codify a legal obligation of responsibility sharing and as a result any assistance to refugee host states remains voluntary. This responsibility sharing gap has in turn negatively impacted on the quality of refugee protection and on interstate relations by exacerbating existing inequalities undermining the fairness of the international refugee law regime.This book offers a pragmatic yet principled solution to the responsibility sharing gap. It puts down a detailed proposal for the long-resisted UN Protocol on Responsibility Sharing which would codify a light package of responsibility sharing obligations by requiring states to contribute to refugee protection and solutions under a framework of common but differentiated responsibilities based on capabilities. Building on the Global Compact on Refugees and drawing inspiration from international climate change law, the book makes a compelling case for further multilateral law making.

Recensioner i media

In her book Responsibility Sharing in International Refugee Law, Elizabeth Mavropolou is perhaps the first to advance ‘a detailed proposal on why a Protocol on Refugee Responsibility Sharing is necessary and how such Protocol could strike the necessary balance between principle and pragmatism’ (p. 19)....[T]he book is a welcome addition to the literature on addressing responsibility sharing gaps in refugee law, particularly as it focuses on legal design. Drawing upon the experience of climate change governance and adapting the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities to refugee protection, the author develops a principled vision for the future. For scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students of international law, this book offers both an insightful diagnosis of a longstanding problem as well as a thoughtful roadmap for reform. -Jinan Bastaki in Journal of International Humanitarian Legal Studies, September 2026
