Funded Activity Summary

Protected entry for asylum seekers in history and international refugee law. This project aims to investigate how States have permitted asylum seekers to safely cross international borders and access protection as refugees. Using rigorous qualitative historical research methods, and a refugee law-based analysis, the project intends to examine the history of protected entry procedures used by governments in Australia, the United States, Canada and Italy, with a view to clarifying the operations and outcomes of these procedures in relation to international refugee law obligations. In an era of record forced migration, this timely and original comparative history of safe access to asylum will advance scholarly knowledge about refugee law and policy.
