This insightful book discusses the predicament of asylum seekers across European states and the reception policies that constrain their movements. Juan Ruiz Ramos argues that, even when these policies do not amount to detention, they interfere with an often neglected right: the freedom of movement within the State.
The author approaches this crucial issue through the lens of migration exceptionalism, illustrating how international law establishes lower human rights standards in the context of migration than in other circumstances. He outlines the complexities surrounding the right to freedom of movement for asylum seekers, as it only applies to those ‘lawfully within’ a country. The book analyses this right from three different angles: the travaux préparatoires of various international instruments, the personal scope of the right and the safeguards that it provides. It further assesses legal tools and case law at the universal level, such as the Refugee Convention, and at the regional level, including the European Court of Human Rights.
Students and scholars of human rights and public international law will greatly benefit from this incisive book. It is also a vital resource for policymakers, lawyers and campaigners working in refugee law, as well as practitioners in NGOs and institutions that support refugee and migrant rights.
