Forced migration is both as ancient as human life on earth and a
relatively new subject of interest for human rights scholars. This
volume continues the discussion from Migrants and Rights to focus
attention on refugees, victims of trafficking and others who cross
borders seeking protection from anthropogenic or natural disasters.
The opening essays provide historical and conceptual overviews of
rights to freedom of movement and asylum; and links between human
rights and refugee law. Articles on the principle of
non-refoulement in international law explore the occasional
disjuncture between the individual's right to protection and the
State's rights to protect its national interests. The refugee's
rights to due process and the substance of entitlements at law are
explored in essays that range across administrative processes;
social and cultural rights, including family reunion; detention;
and the right of return. There follow four essays that address
sexual orientation and refugee rights; refugees and disability
rights; human rights and persons displaced by climate change
disasters; and the rights of victims of human trafficking. The
volume concludes with work reflecting on the rights discourse
outside of traditional 'Western' theatres. These cover Africa
(Kenya), India, South America (Brazil) and the Asia-Pacific
(Indonesia and Papua New Guinea).
