The Refugee Law Reader

We are pleased to announce the launch of the French and Spanish editions of The Refugee Law Reader, as well as the new user-friendly website for the English-language Fifth Edition, which has added regional sections on Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The Refugee Law Reader, the first comprehensive on-line model curriculum for the study and implementation of the complex and rapidly evolving field of international asylum and refugee law, is now accessible in all three languages at www.refugeelawreader.org.

The Reader’s new web design offers easy access to the complete texts of up-to-date core legal materials, instruments, and academic commentary. As a ’living book’, new editions of The Reader always reflect the most important developments in International Refugee Law that have occurred since the first on-line publication in April 2004.

We encourage professors, lawyers, judges, decision-makers, advocates, and students across a wide range of national jurisdictions to visit The Reader and to make use of its enormous resources.
