The fourth edition provides a thoughtful scholarly analysis of refugee law, and related protections. In its treatment of both U.S. and global trends, Refugee Law and Policy examines and contrasts some of the most controversial contemporary issues in refugee law, such as the denial of access to the territory of the country of asylum, through use of expedited removal and similar ''accelerated'' procedures, the increased use of detention, and the ongoing debate over gender-based claims for protection. Since the casebook addresses both substance and procedure, with a focus on practice as well as theory, it is an excellent text not only for students, but for practitioners and those in government agencies as well.
