Reseña del libro "Essays in International Refugee law (en Inglés)"
Started in mid-2015, this book is a collection of papers which have been written based on personal perspective within the writer’s experience of migration due to persecution. For some this may be direct, for others it is the effects of migration, but always there is a consideration of the secondary effect of migration by those who have fled persecution - the policies of countries who provide protection, and those who try to avoid that obligation, or simply the problems associated by the title ownership of things left behind by the refugees. Migration has become an increasingly contentious issue, with politicians using the issue of migration to win votes, or at least prevent the opposition parties from gaining any support. The media often uses the term ‘illegal immigrant’, a term which is both deliberately divisive and erroneous, to mean a range of people who have fled several backgrounds, much of which would entitle them to protection in law by the states that they have fled to. When many people talk about refugees the conversation is typically used to mean several things which are generally confused and used by the uninitiated, interchangeably. This is often done in popular discourse by the media to illicit a response in the reader; De facto refugees, De jure refugees, People in refugee-like situations, people who have Humanitarian protection,Internally Displaced Persons, Asylum seekers, and the most divisive of all, Economic migrants.
