It connects the dots between the actions of Jewish migrants to Palestine after WWII, Vietnamese 'boatpeople', Haitian refugees seeking to reach Florida, Middle Eastern migrants and refugees bound to Australia, and Syrian refugees currently crossing the Mediterranean, and then legal responses by states and international organizations to these movements. Through its account of maritime migration, the book proposes a theory of human rights modelled around an encounter between individuals in which one of the parties is at great risk. It weaves together primary sources, insights from the work of twentieth-century thinkers such as Hannah Arendt and Emmanuel Levinas, and other legal materials to form a rich account of an issue of increasing global concern. 410 0$aCambridge studies in international and comparative law (Cambridge, England : 1996) 606 $aRefugees$xLegal status, laws, etc 606 $aBoat people$xLegal status, laws, etc 606 $aInternational law and human rights 610 $a"Maritime refugees" "Unauthorized immigration" 615 0$aRefugees$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aBoat people$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aInternational law and human rights. 676 $a341.4/86 700 $aMann$b Itamar$0755952 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136606903321 996 $aHumanity at sea$91523409 997 $aUNINA
