Published by: David Simonsz and edited by James Chapman and Lee Anne de la Hunt


SIHMA’s new research paper series is entitled the Advocates’ Migration Brief and addresses recent judicial decisions relating to people on the move. The first paper in the series is entitled Unintended Consequences for Exclusions, and explores the application of exclusion provisions in the South African context. This first paper in the series convers an aspect of international and domestic refugee law being exclusion from refugee status.
