Downloads
Abstract
A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee his or her country because of persecution, war, or violence. A refugee has a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group. Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so. War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries.
The refugees in international law occupies a legal space characterised, on the one hand by the principle of State Sovereignty and the related principles of territorial supermacy and self-preservation; on the other hand, by competeing humanitarian principles deriving from general international law (including the purposes and principles of the United Nations) and from treaty. Refugee laws remains an incomplete legal regime of protection, as the global society is in dilema by the continous conflicts between human rights and state interest. The refugee policies are changing from been primarily rooted in humanitarian considerations to becoming more focused on state interests.
The purpose of this article is to examine the imapct of such conflict on refugee policies as well as on human rights law.
