Borderline Justice The Fight for Refugee and

From pre-arrival to detention and deportation, Borderline Justice describes the exclusionary policies, inhumane decisions and obstacles to justice for refugees and migrants in the current legal system.*BR**BR*Frances Webber, a legal practitioner with over 30 years experience, provides a unique insight into how the law has been applied to migrants, refugees and other 'unpopular minorities'. The book records some of the key legal struggles of the past thirty years which have sought to preserve values of universality in human rights - and the importance of continuing to fight for those values, inside and outside the courtroom. *BR**BR*With its combination of legal and political analysis with insider insights, Borderline Justice will appeal to both academic and non-academic audiences. The themes and analysis cross boundaries of law, politics, sociology, criminology, refugee studies and terrorism studies, appealing to the radical tradition in all these disciplines.

Frances Webber is a retired barrister who specialized in human rights, immigration, and asylum law. She is currently a visiting lecturer at Warwick University and Birkbeck College, University of London. She is Vice-Chair of the Institute of Race Relations, with which she has been involved for over 40 years.

"British justice, when it comes to the treatment of foreigners, has been hollowed out, argues Frances Webber, in this blast against the Bleak House of Britain's immigration and asylum system. On every page of Borderline Justice, the cold, cruel, inhuman, and (above all) racially-determined logic of Home Office decision-making is laid bare by a campaigning lawyer passionate in the belief that the fight to preserve refugee and migrant rights in the UK is central to the larger fight for racial justice internationally." – Liz Fekete, Executive Director, Institute of Race Relations and author of A Suitable Enemy: Racism, Migration and Islamophobia in Europe (2009)
