What happens when human rights norms and law collide with the complexities of asylum decision-making?
This book offers a bold examination of how institutional dynamics and human rights oversight shape the intricate mechanisms behind asylum adjudication. By framing asylum law as an ‘entangled regime,’ the author uncovers how national decision-makers interpret, apply and contest norms of national, international and institutional origin, offering invaluable insights into the evolving landscape of migrants’ rights.
Through a socio-legal lens, it focuses on the Nordic countries—a region renowned for its policy experimentation and increasingly marked by anti-immigrant politics.
Against this politically charged backdrop, where a history of compliance results in a robust rights-focused legal framework, international law faces some of its most rigorous challenges.
