Opis

Africa hosts over a quarter of the world's refugees, and is one of only two continents boasting a legally binding regional refugee protection regime, yet there is no book on African regional refugee law. Sharpe addresses the balance by providing the first analytical account of the regional law of refugee protection in Africa.
