COMMENTARY ON THE REFUGEE CONVENTION …
COMMENTARY ON THE REFUGEE CONVENTION . 1951. ARTICLES 2-11, 13-37. Published by the division of international protection of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees 1997. FOREWORD. The late Professor Atle Grahl-Madsen was above all a pre-eminent international lawyer. During the eighteen months he spent as a Special Consultant in the Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees in 1962-63, he also proved to be a completely independent researcher. His COMMENTARY was unequivocally his, the result of his own findings and his own reasoning. Professor Grahl-Madsen insisted on approaching REFUGEE issues from a legal perspective. He believed that the discussion of the social and political dimensions of REFUGEE flows while important, could not conclude the debate and would rarely lead to consistent and principled solutions. He always considered that the law was a beacon in that darkness, and preferred to give priority to legal analysis. Written in the early sixties, that crucial time for REFUGEE law when the 1951 CONVENTION had been in existence for just a few years, and had not yet been complemented by the 1967 Protocol, Grahl-Madsen's COMMENTARY has not, surprisingly, become obsolete.
