Recenzii
’Asia Pacific is a region of enormous diversity and geo-political complexity, not least in the field of forced migration, including refugee protection. Insights from this timely and useful publication ask important questions as to how States, working together, can better reconcile their competing responsibilities to protect vulnerable people as well as their national interests.’ Richard Towle, UNHCR Regional Representative for Australasia and the Pacific ’This welcome collection provides a much needed overview of protection issues for refugees and displaced persons in the Asia Pacific Region. It will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in understanding how refugee issues in the region impact on the way that Australia responds to them.’ Susan Kneebone, Monash University, Australia and author of Refugees, Asylum Seekers and the Rule of Law: Comparative Perspectives ’its true strengths are its breadth and timeliness...highly useful to those looking for a broad, diverse, and timely understanding of protection in the Asia Pacific.’ Journal of Refugee Studies
