'… this volume represents an excellent contribution to the academic literature and would be a welcome addition to any bookshelf. It is hoped that the research undertaken here will act as a spur for further exploration of this ever-changing and developing area.' Sarah Singer, International and Comparative Law Quarterly
'… the book is exceptionally well written and structured, and methodologically sound. It provides a wealth of comparative knowledge of the asylum systems worldwide. It is also very valuable in terms of elucidating the evolutionary trajectories of these systems and tracing the impulses that shaped them.' Marija Jovanović, International Journal of Refugee Law
