The term "refugee" is both evocative and contentious, with different meanings for different individuals. For legal professionals, the primary legal reference is the UN Refugee Convention of 1951. This concise and captivating book follows the structure of the Convention to delve into international refugee law. Author Colin Yeo, drawing on his extensive experience as an immigration barrister, provides a clear explanation of the current legal framework for global refugee protection. The book covers various aspects, including well-founded fear, persecution, loss of refugee status and exclusion, the rights of refugees, and state responses to refugee claims. It also includes in-depth studies of significant legal cases, evaluates the successes and shortcomings of the Convention, and explores the potential impact of climate change and the Global Compact on Refugees. With its ability to communicate complex legal concepts in a relatable manner, this book serves as an indispensable resource for students, lawyers, and non-specialists alike.
