The book is targeted at academics and students working in the field of migration and asylum law. It will also be of interest to practitioners and to policy makers in Europe, as the first extended scholarly analysis of this field of Irish law. Many of the significant legislative, constitutional and jurisprudential changes that have occurred, have resulted from contested claims arising under EU, ECHR and comparative constitutional law. The book will interest scholars across these fields, and will become a key reference work for the legal profession and researchers in the rapidly expanding area of migration and asylum law. The book is likely to attract significant interest in North America, where debates on citizenship law in Ireland in particular have been followed closely, given the transnational judicial dialogue in Irish courts, referencing US case-law, and the close links between academics and the superior courts in both jurisdictions. Current scholarly work on citizenship law in Ireland has been widely cited in key texts by leading immigration law scholars in the US and Canada, for example.

TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Ch. 1 Immigration and Asylum Law in Ireland: Historical Perspectives Ch. 2 Citizenship and Nationality Law: defining 'who belongs' i. The challenge to jus soli and constitutional reform ii. An emerging right to citizenship: naturalisation and the question of who does citizenship belong to? Ch. 3 Freedom of Movement for EU nationals: rethinking borders and limits i. Free Movement Law and Public Policy: negotiating conflicting claims ii. EU Free Movement Law and the regulation of family life: Metock, marriage migration and fundamental rights Ch. 4 Third Country Nationals: Migrant workers, remedies and rights i. Entry and Residence: Precarious status, limited reforms ii. Irregular migrants, forced labour and access to effective remedies Ch. 5 On rights to family unity and European human rights regimes Litigating migrant rights claims in Ireland has led to significant jurisprudential developments, linked to both ECHR and EU fundamental rights law. Developments both at the E.Ct.H.Rts and the CJEU have prompted significant legislative and policy changes in the regulation of migrant family life, leading to challenges to established constitutional case-law, and to sweeping administrative reforms. This chapter examines the courts and legislature's complex and often tangled engagement with the evolving requirements of European human rights standards relating to migrants' family unity rights claims. Ch. 6 Legal responses to human trafficking and irregular migration A primarily criminal justice response to irregular migration, including human trafficking, has dominated legal responses to this phenomenon in Ireland. This chapter examines this turn to criminal law, and its implication for law and practice on immigration in Ireland. The limited attention given to the enactments of rights protections for trafficked persons is examined, against a background of a rush to further criminalise prostitution in the name of combating trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation. How this expansion of the criminal law impacts upon the rights claims of migrants, is explored, with particular reference to the positions taken on European and international human rights regimes relating to human trafficking. Ch. 7 Asylum Law and Qualifying for Protection i. The Refugee Definition: legislative and jurisprudential developments ii. Qualifying for subsidiary protection: defining serious harm iii. The rights of refugees and beneficiaries of subsidiary protection: 'near equality'? Ch. 8 Access to Protection: navigating protection procedures i. The Protection application process ii. Assessing credibility: 'difficult to believe' iii. Accessing asylum and subsidiary protection: exclusion, removal, deflection Ch. 9 The rights of asylum seekers and protection applicants i. Socio-economic rights and reception conditions ii. Separated Children Seeking Protection: welfare, best interests and risk Introduction Ch. 1 Immigration and Asylum Law in Ireland: Historical Perspectives Ch. 2 Citizenship and Nationality Law: defining 'who belongs' Ch. 3 Freedom of Movement for EU nationals: rethinking borders and limits Ch. 4 Third Country Nationals: Migrant workers, remedies and rights Ch. 5 On rights to family unity and European human rights regimes Ch. 6 Legal responses to human trafficking and irregular migration Ch. 7 Asylum Law and Qualifying for Protection Ch. 8 Access to Protection: navigating protection procedures Ch. 9 The rights of asylum seekers and protection applicants Ch. 10 Enforcement: Detention, deportation and removal
