Overview

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 means/results in a robust rights-focused legal framework, international law faces some of its most rigorous challenges.
