Time’ in Refugee Status Determination in Australia and the United Kingdom: A Clear and Present Danger from Armed Conflict
‘Time’ plays an important role in refugee status determination (RSD) because whilst fear must be current, the fear relates to present or future risk. This article examines the role of time in RSD and how time impacts upon the granting of refugee protection. Thus it concentrates on the test of a ‘well-founded fear’ in article 1A(2) of the Refugee Convention. Claims from persons fleeing armed conflict raise particular challenges because of the flui…
Refugee Protection in the Covid-19 Crisis and Beyond: The Capacity and Limits of International Law
The current pandemic and concomitant framework of crisis has led to unprecedented restrictions on global movement, and hence on the ability of refugees to seek protection. These measures have been implemented as a matter of urgency on account of the immediacy of the public health challenge, yet risk violating international refugee and human rights law. This experience provides an opportunity to reflect on an equally compelling, although less immi…
Urbanisation and health services: Developing a new model of primary health care in Goma (Democratic Republic of Congo)
In this article, we present the process leading to the pilot test of a new primary health care services model in Goma (DRC). This new model proposes the introduction of a multidisciplinary team in the urban health centres to offer comprehensive and better-quality patient care. Our contribution highlights the importance of an in-depth analysis of the urban context for the implementation of a new model of care, and the usefulness of a constructive …
Imminence in Refugee and Human Rights Law: A Misplaced Notion for International Protection
This article is an output of a major research project examining the notion of imminence in the law on international protection. It is the first piece of scholarship to identify an emerging trend, namely the introduction of imminence—whether invoked implicitly or explicitly—as a potential barrier to refugee status or complementary protection. The article analyses the jurisprudence of relevant international bodies and courts and critiques the valid…

An Introduction to the Common European Asylum System for Courts and Tribunals: A Judicial Analysis
This publication is the first in a series of materials produced by the European Asylum Support Office. EASO was set up by European Union (EU) Regulation 439/2010, with one of its objectives being to develop and provide common and quality training for members of national courts and tribunals so as to ensure effectiveness and harmonization in the implementation of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS). Indeed, right from the beginning of the dev…
Temporary Refuge From War: Customary International Law and the Syrian Conflict
The rule of temporary refuge forms the cornerstone of the response of States to large-scale influx of refugees. In the context of civilians fleeing armed conflict, this legal rule imposes a positive obligation on all States to admit and not to return anyone to a situation where there is a risk to life, and to provide basic rights commensurate with human dignity. Also implicit in the rule is the expectation of shared responsibility for large numbe…
Feminismo autônomo latino-americano: Na Bolívia, as Mujeres Creando reivindicam a descolonização dos corpos
Neste artigo, pretendo compreender o lugar ocupado pelo corpo na práxis e no pensamento do coletivo boliviano anarquista, feminista e anti-imperialista chamado Mujeres Creando. Primero, interesso-me pela leitura das relações de poder feitas pelas mulheres do coletivo, para depois analisar os meios implementados por elas para subverter esse mesmo poder, colocando os seus corpos em jogo. Essas partidárias consideram os seus próprios corpos como ter…
Statelessness as a Human Rights Issue: A Concept Whose Time Has Come
The protection of stateless persons has long been understood as a challenge for the international community. However, for many of the past 60 years, a prioritized focus on refugees has dominated, or even eclipsed, the plight and protection needs of stateless persons. Guy Goodwin-Gill has long argued for a refocus of international attention and effort on the plight, predicament, and protection needs of stateless persons. In a seminal contribution …
Comparative Perspectives on Arbitrary Deprivation of Nationality and Refugee Status
The question of whether arbitrary deprivation of nationality constitutes persecution for the purposes of a determination of refugee status has received increased attention in recent jurisprudence. However, no systematic argument has been made to date on the ordinary meaning of words, context, object and purpose of Article 1A(2) of the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees as it applies to stateless refugees. This is an important ques…
The Next Frontier: Expanding Protection in Europe for Victims of Armed Conflict and Indiscriminate Violence
This article examines the protection currently afforded in Europe to victims of armed conflict and indiscriminate violence in the context of article 15c of the EC Qualification Directive (QD) and article 3 of the ECHR. It analyses the recent case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), the European Court of Human Rights, and five member states (the UK, Germany, France, the Czech Republic and the Netherlands) with a view to ident…
The Changing Character of Armed Conflict and the Implications for Refugee Protection Jurisprudence
This article focuses on a key aspect of the EC Qualification Directive, namely, the grounds of eligibility for subsidiary protection. These grounds rest on a test for the risk of ‘serious harm’ were the applicant to be returned to his or her country of origin. If a genuine risk of harm is found, then the applicant would qualify for protection. Article 15 of the Directive defines ‘serious harm’ in terms of (a) the death penalty, (b) torture or deg…
Human Security and Non-Citizens - Law, Policy and International Affairs
The concept of security too often refers to traditional ideas of national security, such as security of territory against external aggression, protection of national interest in foreign policy or global security from the threat of nuclear weapons. Based upon an enlarged framework of human security – first advocated by the UN Development Programme (1994) and later on by the UN Commission on Human Security (2003) and the UN Secretary-General (2004)…
Transnational Judicial Dialogue, Harmonization and the Common European Asylum System
Increased policy harmonization on refugee matters in the European Union (EU), namely the creation of a Common European Asylum System (CEAS), has created the imperative for a transnational judicial comparative dialogue between national courts. This article is based on a structured, focused comparison approach to examining a key element of a transnational European legal dialogue, namely, the use of foreign law by national judges when making their o…
Comparative Perspectives of Constitutional Asylum in France, Italy, and Germany: Requiescat in Pace
Most countries provide asylum through domestic legislation, such as a statute incorporating the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees. France, Italy, and Germany stand out as three of very few European countries specifically to guarantee a right of asylum in their national Constitutions. The origin, wording, and scope of these constitutional provisions vary, depending on historical factors specific to each country. This article exami…
The Eu Asylum Qualification Directive, Its Impact on the Jurisprudence of the United Kingdom And International Law
The new legal order in European asylum is being shaped by a key document: the Directive on minimum standards for the qualification and status of third-country nationals as refugees and persons otherwise in need of international protection and the content of the protection granted (hereinafter the Qualification Directive). The Qualification Directive was adopted by the Council of the European Union on 29 April 2004. 2 It entered into force on 20 O…
The European Convention on Human Rights and the Protection of Refugees: Limits and Opportunities
This article analyses the scope of the human rights of refugees in the ECHR looking at the latest trends in the jurisprudence developed by the Court and which are relevant to the protection of refugees. In doing so, it concentrates on the determination of those rights by the Court, leaving aside issues of access to those rights by refugees. Its focus is primarily on the latest interpretation by the Court of Article 3 (prohibition against ill-trea…
The Conceptualisation of 'Persecution' by the House of Lords: Horvath v. Secretary of State for the Home Department
In a reserved judgment of 6 July 2000, Horvath v. Secretary of State for the Home Department, the House of Lords answered yes to the fundamental question: Is the protection afforded by (or lacking from) the state a necessary element in the concept of persecution under article 1A(2) of the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, 1951. This answer is to be welcome for at least two reasons. One, it embraces the principles of interpretation de…
Courting controversy: International law, national norms and American nuclear use
In July 1996, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued a controversial Advisory Opinion on the legality of nuclear use (including, threat of use). The ICJ found that ‘nuclear use would generally be contrary to the rules of international law’, but it failed to conclude that nuclear use would be unlawful in all circumstances. The major reason for this was because it recognized nuclear norms (that is, the practice of deterrence) to which many…
The European Court of Human Rights and the right of refugees and other persons in need of protection to family reunion
While article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR50) does not provide an absolute right for individuals, it does impose certain obligations on States. In any dispute arising under this article, the European Court of Human Rights must balance two sets of competing interests, the right of individuals to private and family life, on one hand, and the interests of the community, on the other. To this end, the Court applies certain gener…
Building a European asylum policy under the 'first pillar' of the consolidated treaty establishing the European Community
On 24 June 1998, the Commission adopted two proposals for joint action on asylum matters, one concerning temporary protection of displaced persons, the other concerning solidarity in the reception and residence of beneficiaries of temporary protection. The principles laid down in the text of these joint actions offer a realistic, and to some extent satisfactory, solution to refugee protection in the Union. Notwithstanding the fact that certain is…
Protection Against Refoulement from Europe: Human Rights Law Comes to the Rescue
A growing opinion has appeared in refugee and human rights discourse that the 1950 European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (the European Convention) provides more extensive protection against refoulement than the 1951 UN Convention relating to the Status of Refugees (the Refugee Convention). However, uncertainties remain as to whether the protection offered by the 1984 UN Convention against Torture (the Torture Convention) an…

Seeking Asylum on Gender Grounds
This article discusses whether the criteria and procedures which are currently being used in European states offer fair treatment and sufficient protection to women seeking asylum on the ground of a gender-related persecution.
