'This book is a remarkable compendium on the human rights of migrants. It very clearly outlines the applicable standards and the challenges of the complexity of the legal and social condition of many migrants. It will serve as a reference in the difficult debates to come, as States grapple with global migration governance, at a time when nationalist populism threatens the democratic fabric of our societies.' -- Francois Crepeau, UN Special Rapporteur for the Human Rights of Migrants
'Freedom of movement remains one of the inchoate rights in the catalogue provided by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Even the limited protection that international law provides finds itself threatened by the strains of refugee flows and mass migration. This authoritative work provides a most useful, convenient and constructive guide to an exceedingly complex area.' -- William Schabas, Middlesex University London, UK
'This book outlines expertly and authoritatively the central role that the protection of human rights must play in the development of international migration law and policy. It is essential reading for academics, practitioners, civil society representatives, policy makers and government officials and constitutes an invaluable guide in the challenging negotiations towards the UNs Global Compact on Migration.' -- Valsamis Mitsilegas, Queen Mary University of London, UK
'This book provides an important overview of general acquis regarding human rights of migrants under UN law. The list of norms at the end of the book shows the present state of the art on minimum standards for the treatment of migrants all over the world.' -- Pieter Boeles, Vrie Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands
