This book represents a comprehensive analysis of the global forced migration crisis (GFMC). It examines the key political and legal challenges confronting forced migrants in human rights law and practice. On the one hand, it analyses the impact of the GFMC on political and legal systems across various countries. Conversely, it examines the effect of the new policies and legal mechanisms on the refugee status determination (RSD) processes and immigration control. The book employs a comparative analysis method through five case studies: the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, and Israel. The author focuses on the diverse policies, practices, and legal frameworks that influence the ability of forced migrants to seek asylum in various regions worldwide, along with the associated human rights consequences.
