Step into the heart of one of the most pressing issues of our time with Rawan Diab’s book, “The Right to Asylum in International Law and Legal Philosophy – The Syrian Conflict and Refugee Crisis.” Diab navigates the intricate web of migration, shedding light on the historical, political, and philosophical dimensions that have shaped our world with particular reference to the Syrian Conflict and refugee crisis.

In a century marked by unprecedented global migration, Diab delves into the myriad challenges faced by individuals seeking refuge from extreme poverty, internal conflicts, and environmental disasters. Focusing on the Syrian conflict and the refugee crisis, this book provides a profound examination of the factors driving migration, the evolving landscape of international law, and the philosophical underpinnings of open borders.

Diab’s work confronts the stark realities faced by asylum seekers, particularly those from regions like Syria, Libya, Iraq, Somalia, and Azerbaijan. The author scrutinizes the complexities of migration policies, the reluctance of “modern States” to open their borders, and the poignant struggles of those who seek safety and security.

With a meticulous analytical approach, the book addresses pivotal questions surrounding the right to leave, the right to stay, and the future of global migration policies. From the legal foundations outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to the intricate workings of the principle of non-refoulement, Diab weaves a comprehensive narrative that engages scholars, policymakers, and concerned citizens alike.

“The Right to Asylum in International Law and Legal Philosophy” is not just a book; it’s a journey into the heart of human rights, justice, and the very fabric of our interconnected world. Rawan Diab invites you to explore, learn, and be part of the discourse shaping the future of migration. Order your copy today and become a participant in this vital conversation.
