Providing a comprehensive multidisciplinary analysis of key issues in the field, this topical Research Handbook explores asylum and migration policy in a global context. Bringing together a diverse collection of experts, Jane Freedman and Glenda Santana de Andrade outline national, regional and international responses to refugees and forced migration.

The Research Handbook examines how asylum and refugee policies have evolved since the 1951 Refugee Convention, and why gaps remain in protection. Chapters cover historical approaches and geopolitical contexts, explore key regional issues such as the Common European Asylum System, and consider thematic questions surrounding securitisation, violence and resistance, and intersectionality. This forward thinking Research Handbook concludes with an analysis of new and emerging issues which will be vital for the future of asylum and refugee policy, including how to protect climate change refugees and the impact of pandemics.

Interdisciplinary in scope, this Research Handbook is invaluable for students and scholars of human rights, migration, development studies and political science, alongside asylum and refugee policymakers.
