Details

Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.

This enlightening Research Agenda explores international refugee law through marginalised topics and perspectives. A diverse array of leading experts propose new research avenues for centring forgotten voices at a time of increasingly complex and rampant government-fuelled xenophobia.

Chapters assess how states have shrewdly adapted to changes in migration patterns and causation, resulting in difficulties in ensuring the humane treatment of migrants. Contributors decentre Eurocentric frameworks to legitimise and prioritise the lived experiences of displaced persons, allowing them to interrogate the impact of colonialism in refugee scholarship and practices. The Research Agenda moves beyond the limitations of asylum law regimes to focus more broadly on mobility, decolonialism and feminist approaches. It encourages scholars to partner with displaced persons, reframing refugee law to reflect the realities of those it is designed to protect.

The Research Agenda for Refugee Law is a vital resource for scholars and students of refugee law, international law and politics and public policy. Human rights lawyers and asylum workers will similarly benefit from its radical lens and reconceptualisation of the field.
