Everyone in the world can be having their human right, but some activity in country only able nationals to participate, for example: election. Also much of the stateless didn't have their right, they may never get the ID of the country, just get in to jail, losing the chance of education and health services or can’t get a job (UNHCR, 2014).

Asylum-Seeker refers to the person who is finding the international protection, not all the asylum-seeker final can be a refugee, but all the refugees begin is an asylum-seeker. Stateless people refer to who are not relating to any country and national. Internally displaced people refer to the people who are forced to leave their home because of the wars, or some human problem, and getting in to another country from the border. Returnees refer to the people who return to their own country, they are supported by UNHCR when they arrive (UNHCR, 2014).

Sari Hanafi (2011) pointed out have three levels of crisis is very important. First, the national state has a power to change or control whole population, make the people in the state to be stateless people. If this happen in Europe, much of the national state does it after the World War II. Especially in 1948, Israeli policies expelling Palestinians, in Jerusalem the Palestinian just only the temporary residents, they have to prove they are life in city at the time. From Libya (1995), the Palestinian refugees were getting expulsion, because of the absence of civil and socioeconomic right, and stated them to be specific undesirable populace. The second is about the sovereign to agree a nation or a religion. The problem of “Israel is Jewish State” and “Jordan First” is because the population, through the move living places to get another nationality, to build another home or homeland. This the second way to move the refugees in a nation states. The third level is about the benefit of right in a nation state. In the traditional nation state have their own right for their citizens, but that is not human right. In the place that has the right for citizens, you must be citizens; otherwise you are same the refugees or stateless people at the beginning of 1950s. Refugees and stateless people are don't have their right, not protect under the law. That problem is not only happen in the Middle East country, also happening
One of the more disconcerting aspects of Bill C-31 is the newly adopted Designated Country of Origin (DCO) legislation which has permanently labeled particular nations as “safe”. Consequently, individuals claiming refugee status who originate from these countries no longer have the same rights and privileges afforded to their refugee counterparts from other nations (“Overview of C-31,” 2013). In turn, this has led to a dichotomy between those who view this change as necessary in order to diminish the influx of embellished and falsified refugee claims and those who view this policy as discriminatory and prejudiced towards people originating from certain nations.

Definition of an Asylum Seeker: An asylum seeker is any person who has unwillingly fled their country of origin and is unable return due to facing persecution because of their race, religion, sexual orientation, political opinion or involvement in a particular social or political group.
Refugee is someone who fled his/her country because of conflict or for fear of been prosecuted for reason of race, nationality, religion, sexuality, and political opinion (UNHCR, 1 February, 2002). An asylum seeker is someone who fled his/her country of origin and applies for recognition as a refugee in another country, and
According to the 1951 Refugee Convention, refugee is a term applied to anyone who is outside his/her own country and cannot return due to the fear of being persecuted on the basis of race, religion, nationality, membership of a group or political opinion. Many “refugees” that the media and the general public refer to today are known as internally displaced persons, which are people forced to flee their homes to avoid things such as armed conflict, generalized violations of human rights or natural and non-natural disasters. These two groups are distinctly different but fall ...
The practice of moving away from home in search of a better place or escaping conflict-ridden area is becoming common. People migrate from one country to another because of
An Asylum Seeker is a person who has fled from their country because they are afraid of being persecuted due to their race, religion, nationality, or political beliefs (Australian Human Rights Commission, 2014).
A person may leave his/her country of origin due to political reasons. When the person requests for protection from a foreign country he/she is accepted as an asylum. The country offers protection to the person as a political refugee. Those who seek asylum are normally persecuted for political reasons (Oxford journal, 2011).
When lines of identity inevitably blend, relative jurisprudence must be exercised. Lines make excluding circles and methods of excluding people from asylum; our international community divides into unwelcome and welcome nations. As discourse, cultural identity means translating beliefs and feelings from one culture to another. In the process of translation, a screen of cultural values filters understanding of the values and experience of the “other.” The simple word “refugee” evokes images and stories particular to a collectively defined identity, invoking “an image of the radicalized other” (Daniel 272).
Some places where there has been natural disasters and stuff like that have made people leave their home country and become refugees. People who are in the
Migrating from one country to another may happen for many reasons. Immigration is the process that occurs when an individual goes to live permanently in a foreign country (Oxford Dictionary, 2016). However, there are different types of migration that occur, and it is vital to distinguish the differences between an immigrant and a refugee for the purpose of understanding the two terms. Other titles such as asylum seeker is applicable here, however this study will not be looking at asylum seekers. Legally, an Asylum seeker is recognised in the UK as an individual who has applied for refugee status in the UK and is still waiting for a decision on his or her claim, once an individual has received a positive decision on his or her claim they own
A refugee is an individual that has been forced to leave their country because of harsh conditions. The government has always had the power to regulate the amount of refugees coming in to the United States. This is mostly due to the fact that there are costs to hosting refugees: "including rent, furnishings, food, and clothing." The problem is that the budget is mostly coming out of the state's themselves. Because of the recent crisis, there is a large amount of refugees coming to the United States, causing the state's to retaliate, asking to lower the numbers. Not only is this causing problems between the state's and the government, it is also endangering the refugees. That is why I believe that in order to eliminate the problems, the government
A refugee is defined as an individual who has been forced to leave their country due to political or religious reasons, or due to a threat of war or violence. There were 19.5 million refugees worldwide at the end of 2014, 14.4 million under the mandate of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), around 2.9 million more than in 2013. The other 5.1 million Palestinian refugees are registered with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). With the displacement of so many people, it is difficult to find countries willing to accept all the refugees. There are over 125 different countries that currently host refugees, and with this commitment comes the responsibility of ensuring these refugees have access to the basic requirements of life: a place to live, food to eat, and a form of employment or access to education.
In the aftermath of a second-world war that saw the displacement of millions of people throughout Europe, the United Nations (U.N.) sought to establish the legal parameters that would define who qualified as a refugee and the shared responsibilities of the nations that granted them asylum (Akram, 2002). As an extension of green-rights, the 1951 Refugee Convention helped advance the procurement of international human rights for a collective of individuals that would have otherwise been discriminated against and exploited due to their vulnerable circumstances (Text1951,
In the last few weeks there has been stories of lives lost, sacrificed and risked all in the immigration of mass quantities of refugees into Europe. In the middle East countries such as Syria, Damascus, and northern parts of Iraq. There has been a mass shift in the population of Syria as many Syrians wish to escape the conflict and flee into Europe countries like Germany, Hungry, and the UK. In the media, much of the news coverage has been on the refugees ' stories. Germany has been overrun with the flooding of refugees. Countries are thought to accept them with open arms are countries that are a part of the UN have an “obligation” to give asylum to the refugees. “According to the European Union, almost 150,00 Syrian refugees have declared political asylum in the European Union since the start of the current conflict in Syria, the majority in Germany and Sweden” ( European University Institute). The media portrays these Syrian and all immigrants ' stories to be harsh and cruel. The show graphic images of how the refugees risk their life to come to a better country. One without conflict and war. An example of the graphic stories covered is the one of a Syrian boy that was found washed ashore. “Aylan Kurdi, a Syrian Kurd from Kobani, a town near the Turkish border that has witnessed months of heavy fighting between the Islamic St...
