A Typology of Institutional Logics for Public Accountability Organizations in Zambia
This article presents a new typology of institutional logics that is useful for studying public accountability organizations in Zambia. The typology was developed by following the adaptive theory approach introduced by Derek Layder and is based on extant literature as well as on new empirical data from three public accountability organizations in Zambia, the Office of Auditor General, the Anti-Corruption Commission, and the national ombudsman off…
Refugee Law and Human Rights
James Hathaway's recent work, in which he argues for a reconceptualization of refugee law and protection, has provoked extensive discussion. His paper entitled ’Reconceiving Refugee Law as Human Rights Protection“ appeared in the Journal of Refugee Studies 4: 2, 1991, pp. 113–131. We publish here a critique by Daniel Warner of Hathaway's propositions, set out in that and other publications, followed by a reply from James Hathaway

Betrayal
The Minister of Employment and Immigration, Flora MacDonald, at the last meeting of organizations concerned with refugees said that she had sorne reservations about universal access.But she claimed she had listened to the arguments of those concerned.The fact is that a consultative process is abused when the discussions proceed on one track with a variety of alternatives and, at the last minute, a radically different procedure Continued
Compassion and Pragmatism
Open wide the floodgates?\nMuch of the initial media reaction to the recently released Plaut Report on the refugee status determination process unfortunately has given the impression that the changes proposed will in some sense give rise to "gatecrashing" by persons unwilling to comply with ordinary immigration requirements, thereby jeopardizing the ability of Canada to ensure the integrity of its borders. We are told that the adoption of the stu…
