Preliminary Material -- Categories of Aliens and Types of Expulsion -- The Concept and the Development of the Right of an Alien Lawfully in the Territory of a State to be Protected against Arbitrary Expulsion -- The Scope of Protection against Arbitrary Expulsion from a State of Legal Residence under International Human Rights Law -- Procedural Measures and Guarantees to Which an Alien is Entitled To -- Polish Approach to Protection against Arbitrary Expulsion -- Responsibility of a State for Violating the Right of an Alien to be Protected against Arbitrary Expulsion -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index.

Sommario/riassunto

In The Right of an Alien to be Protected against Arbitrary Expulsion in International Law Julia Wojnowska-Radzińska offers a comprehensive legal study of international legal obligations of States for the protection of aliens lawfully residing against arbitrary expulsion. It also provides practical information on administrative proceedings, legal remedies and



procedural rights aliens exercise. The book aims at answering a fundamental question how to strike a balance between the inherent right of a State to expel an alien and the rights the latter is entitled to. The reader will therefore be given a survey of the subject that is both usefully brief and sufficiently detailed to answer most questions likely to arise in any pertinent legal setting.
