The places in which refugees seek sanctuary are often as dangerous
and bleak as the conditions they fled. In response, many travel
within and across borders in search of safety. As part of these
journeys, refugees are increasingly turning to courts to ask for
protection, not from persecution in their homeland, but from a
place of 'refuge'. This book is the first global and comparative
study of 'protection from refuge' litigation, examining whether
courts facilitate or hamper refugee journeys with a particular
focus on gender. Drawing on jurisprudence from Africa, Europe,
North America and Oceania, Kate Ogg shows that courts have
transitioned from adopting robust ideas of refuge to rudimentary
ones. This trajectory indicates that courts can play a powerful
role in creating more just and equitable refugee protection
policies, but have, ultimately, compounded the difficulties
inherent in finding sanctuary, perpetuating global inequities in
refugee responsibility and rendering refuge elusive.
