Sumario: | "Up to now, academic research has not addressed issues of proof and credibility in the asylum procedure to an extent reflecting its practical importance. This edited volume attempts to fill the void. Academic experts on the theory of evidence, international criminal law, human rights law, refugee law, sociology of law and psychology have contributed chapters exploring both empirical and normative dimensions of evidentiary assessment. Drawing on the results of a 12 month research project within the framework of the Refugee Research Programme and of three interdisciplinary expert conferences, this volume sets new parameters for an informed debate on evidence in asylum cases."--BOOK JACKET.
