Abstract

Međunarodno pravo je tek u prvoj polovini 20. stoljeća usmjerilo svoju normativnu zaštitu na izbjeglice, što je rezultiralo usvajanjem ključnih međunarodnih instrumenata za njihovu zaštitu, kao i uspostavom relevantnih institucija nadležnih za njihovu provedbu. U ovom radu analizirane su temeljne odrednice međunarodnopravne zaštite izbjeglica, u cilju temeljitijeg sagledavanja suvremenih izazova i pravnih pitanja u ovoj oblasti. Rad započinje uvidom u povijesni i pravni razvoj zaštite izbjeglica, s posebnim osvrtom na Konvenciju o pravnom položaju izbjeglica iz 1951. i Protokol iz 1967. Uz detaljno pojašnjenje uvjeta za stjecanje i prestanak izbjegličkog statusa, posebna pažnja posvećena je analizi instituta non-refoulement i prava na azil kao temeljnih mehanizama zaštite izbjeglica. Završni dio rada posvećen je identificiranju ključnih međunarodnih organizacija nadležnih za zaštitu izbjeglica i razmatranju njihove uloge u tom kontekstu.

Abstract (english)

International law directed its normative protection towards refugees only in the first half of the 20th century, which resulted in the adoption of key international instruments for their protection, as well as the establishment of relevant institutions responsible for their implementation. This thesis analyzes the fundamental aspects of international legal protection of refugees, with the aim of providing a comprehensive understanding of contemporary challenges and legal issues in this field. The study begins with an overview of the historical and legal development of refugee protection, with a particular focus on the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol. Along with a detailed explanation of the conditions for acquiring and losing refugee status, special attention is given to the analysis of the principle of non-refoulement and the right to asylum as fundamental mechanisms of refugee protection. The final section of the thesis is dedicated to identifying key international organizations responsible for refugee protection and examining their role in this context.
