Persecution On Account Of Gender: A Need For Refugee Law Reform
Bret Thiele
Hastings Women’s Law Journal
Volume 11, Number 2, Summer 2000 p.221

Reacting to the horrors committed during World War II and the subsequent mass migration of individuals across State boundaries, the international community in 1951 agreed to a definition of refugee. This definition is still in use internationally and reflected in U.S. domestic law. This article illustrates how the current definition of refugee is limited and therefore inadequate to protect millions of persons, namely those persecuted or facing persecution on account of gender. Likewise, recent developments in refugee law do not sufficiently provide protection to individuals facing gender-specific forms of persecution. This article argues for the addition of a gender category to the U.S., and ultimately the international, definition of refugee. While adding a gender category to the existing definition would not in itself be specific to either men or women, it would be particularly helpful in ensuring that women fleeing persecution on account of their gender are entitled to legal recognition and protection as refugees.

Temporary Protection of Refugees: Elements of a Formalized Regime
Joan Fitzpatrick
American Journal of International Law
Volume 94, Number 2, April 2000 p.279

As the 1951 Refugee Convention has fallen into disfavor, different forms of temporary protection have been extended to forced migrants, especially from Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo, as a substitute for refugee status. But the conflicting functions of temporary protection and competing motives of its proponents impede its development. Its content is being clarified in the European Union’s move to address temporary protection under the Treaty of Amsterdam. Agreement on sharing responsibility for its implementation will likely be delayed.
