Resettlement as Protection

Marjoleine Zieck

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This timely book focuses on one of the so-called “durable solutions to the problem of refugees†that UNHCR has been charged to pursue: resettlement. Resettlement consists of the transfer of refugees from their country of asylum to another state in case of severe protection problems in the country of asylum. States are not obliged to offer resettlement places, and in practice that means that resettlement is run as a discretionary immigration scheme. This book attempts to integrate resettlement in international refugee law.
