Sinossi
Global Asylum Routes examines the perilous journeys and varied receptions faced by LGBTQ asylum seekers fleeing persecution. This book addresses the crucial question of how effectively international mechanisms protect these vulnerable populations amidst increasing global migration. A key insight is that while international laws exist, their implementation differs significantly across countries, leading to disparities in asylum outcomes. The book highlights the fact that cultural attitudes and legal interpretations in receiving countries greatly impact the success of asylum claims. The book explores two interconnected areas: the specific routes LGBTQ individuals take to escape unsafe environments and the diverse responses from countries receiving these asylum applications. It emphasizes the gaps in current protection mechanisms by focusing on government policies and societal acceptance. Did you know that LGBTQ individuals have historically faced systemic discrimination and violence, compelling them to seek refuge elsewhere? This book offers context on international human rights laws, particularly the 1951 Refugee Convention, and how it's interpreted differently across nations. The book's approach is to first introduce legal and sociological concepts, then to map common migration routes, and finally to examine asylum adjudication processes in various countries. Through mixed-methods research, including legal analysis and interviews, the book provides policy recommendations aimed at enhancing the protection and integration of LGBTQ asylum seekers. This exploration of political science and social science sheds light on the complex realities of global migration for LGBTQ individuals.
