International Law and Migration gathers selected contributions edited by Vincent Chetail, Professor of International Law at the Graduate Institute and Director of the Global Migration Centre, and published by Edward Elgar Publishing.
The collection takes stock of the important legal scholarship devoted to the multifaceted impact of international law on migration. It highlights the great diversity of the legal literature and provides a representative and didactic mapping of the key issues and rules at stake. The selected papers explore the core notions of movement, sovereignty and globalisation. They also examine the complex and conflicting issues raised by alienage, citizenship and the rule of law as well as the main controversies surrounding the legal protection of migrant workers and refugees in contemporary international law.
Professor Chetail’s original introduction illuminates these important issues on a highly relevant topic.
