Rezensionen / Stimmen
Review from previous edition This textbook has been essential reading for the students in the last decade. The module itself is modelled on the textbook and students find it very useful and accessible. * Dr Miroslav Baros, Senior Lecturer in Law, Sheffield Hallam University * Provides students with a fresh and multi-disciplinary critique of this area of law and makes the necessary link between context and practice. * Sajida Ismail, Lecturer in Law, Manchester Metropolitan University * This book does a great job in explaining a complex area of law and policy. I can think of no other work that engages with the subject in this way. * Professor Colin Harvey, School of Law, Queen's University Belfast * The ideal book to offer students the foundations for understanding immigration and refugee law. * Dr Irene Antonopoulos, Lecturer in Law, De Montfort University *
