Alex Powell, ‘The Love that Must Speak Its Name: Inadmissibility, Credibility and LGBTIQA+ Asylum in 2024’, 17 May 2024
Abstract
Guest post by Alex Powell. Alex is Principal Lecturer in Law at Oxford Brookes University. His research focuses on how the UK process LGBTIQA+ or queer asylum claims, with a view to critically challenging the ways in which sexuality is (re)constructed within the asylum process. His first monograph, drawing on 26 interviews with LGBTIQA+ refugees, representatives of the third sector, and legal practitioners, is currently under contract with Bristol University Press.
