Description

This book explores the human right to leave any country, including one's own, in international law, and its applicability to externalised migration control.

It develops a framework for interpreting the right and demonstrates how these externalisation measures violate it. Analysing the work of international and regional systems enshrining the right and examining global externalisation practices, it clearly demonstrates the radical reform required by states and international organisations to comply with this right to leave.

This book offers compelling insights for lawyers in the fields of international law, human rights and refugee law, as well as migration policymakers, practitioners, and officials.
