Rethinking Asylum: History, Purpose, and Limits
Price, Matthew E. (Harvard University, Massachusetts)
Who should receive asylum? Traditionally, asylum has been limited to people fearing persecution, but should it be extended to those fleeing civil wars, severe poverty, and other serious harm? Matthew Price defends the focus on persecution, arguing that granting asylum expresses political values by condemning states for mistreating their citizens.
