The Refugee Caselaw database contains jurisprudence from 31 jurisdictions. It includes a "Core Collection" of decisions selected, summarized, and indexed by James C. Hathaway, from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the European Union. Researchers can find cases by browsing by country, doing a keyword/Boolean Quick Search, or using a Guided Search. This last feature enables field searches for refugee cases by asylum country, court, claimant's country of origin, date, "Hathaway" number, concepts (such as "torture" or "gender persecution"), and case name. The site also includes excerpts from Professor Hathaway's The Law of Refugee Status (1991).
