This book considers the United Nations High Commissioner for
Refugees' contribution to international refugee law since the
establishment of UNHCR by the United Nations General Assembly in
1951. The book explores the historical and statutory foundations
that create an indelible link between UNHCR and international
refugee law. This book charts the significant evolution that has
occurred in the organisation's role throughout the last sixty
years, looking at both the formal means by which UNHCR's mandate
may be modified, and the techniques UNHCR has used to facilitate
the changes in its role, thereby revealing a significant evolution
in the organisation's role since the onset of the crisis in refugee
protection in the 1980's. UNHCR, itself, has demonstrated its
organizational autonomy as the primary agent for the adaptation of
its responsibilities and work related to international refugee law.
The author does suggest however that UNHCR needs to continue to
extend and strengthen its role related to international refugee law
if UNHCR is to ensure a stronger legal framework for the protection
of refugees as well as a fuller respect for refugees' rights in
practice. UNHCR and International Refugee Law should be of
particular interest to refugee lawyers as well as academics and
students of refugee law and international law, and anyone concerned
with the important role that UNHCR plays in the protection of
refugees today.
