Expulsion of Aliens United Nations A/CN.4/565 General Assembly Distr.: General 10 July 2006 Original: English International Law Commission Fifty-eighth session Geneva, 1 May-9 June and 3 July-11 August 2006 Expulsion of aliens Memorandum by the Secretariat Summary The present study was prepared to assist the International Law Commission in the consideration of the topic of the expulsion of aliens. The study endeavours to provide a comprehensive analysis of the possible issues which may require consideration in the context of the present topic. It further provides an analytical summary of the relevant legal materials contained in treaty law, international jurisprudence, other international documents, national legislation and national jurisprudence. It surveys relevant materials adopted at the international level, the regional level as well as the national level. It also reproduces the relevant extracts of the various legal materials for ease of reference. The study is based on the premise that every State has the right to expel aliens. However, this right is subject to general limitations as well as specific substantive and procedural requirements. Traditionally, the right of expulsion was subject to general limitations such as the prohibition of abuse of rights, the principle of good faith, the prohibition of arbitrariness and standards relating to the treatment of aliens. Contemporary international human rights law has had a significant impact on the law relating to the expulsion of aliens in terms of the development of more specific substantive and procedural requirements. Recent trends in national law and practice with respect to the expulsion of aliens suspected of involvement in international terrorism may raise issues with respect to compliance with these requirements. The study approaches the topic first from the perspective of the expulsion of aliens in general in relation to the grounds and other considerations relating to the decision to expel an alien, the procedural requirements for the expulsion of an alien, and the implementation of the decision to expel an alien by means of voluntary departure or deportation. The study then turns to the special considerations that may apply to the expulsion of specific categories of aliens, such as illegal aliens, resident aliens, migrant workers, minor children, refugees and stateless persons. The study also 06-26029 (E) 271206 *0626029* A/CN.4/565 addresses questions relating to the deprivation of nationality and the expulsion of former nationals as aliens. The expulsion of enemy aliens who are nationals of an opposing State during an armed conflict is considered under the relevant jus in bello, including international humanitarian law, as well as the human rights standards for the expulsion of aliens which continue to apply in armed conflict. At the conclusion of the consideration of the expulsion of individual aliens, the study provides a brief overview of the possible forms of reparation for unlawful expulsion based on State practice. The study then turns to the question of the collective expulsion and the mass expulsion of aliens. The individual expulsion, the collective expulsion and the mass expulsion of aliens may be viewed as being governed by separate legal regimes and are treated as such for purposes of the present study. A State has a broad discretionary right to expel aliens from its territory when their continuing presence is contrary to its interests subject to certain limitations and requirements. In contrast, the collective expulsion of a group of aliens as such (even a small group) is contrary to the very notion of the human rights of individuals and is therefore prohibited. The collective expulsion of a group of aliens does not take into account the consequences of the presence, the grounds and other factors affecting the expulsion, the procedural requirements for the expulsion or the rules relating to the implementation of the expulsion decision with respect to a single one of these aliens. The decision concerning expulsion is made with respect to the group of aliens as a whole. Mass expulsion involves the expulsion of a large number of aliens within a relatively short period of time. Mass expulsion may be viewed as an abuse of the right of expulsion and as imposing an excessive burden on the receiving State. Mass expulsion is prohibited except in very exceptional circumstances involving a change in the territory of a State or armed conflict. Even in such cases, the expulsion of a large number of aliens must comply with the general limitations as well as the substantive and procedural requirements for the expulsion of individual aliens to the extent possible under these exceptional circumstances. The collective expulsion or the mass expulsion of aliens may also violate the principle of non- discrimination and therefore constitute an additional violation of international law or an aggravated form of the prohibition of collective expulsion or mass expulsion. The study consists of Parts I to XII as well as Annexes I and II. General aspects of the study are addressed in Parts I and II. Part I provides a general introduction to the topic of the expulsion of aliens. Part II provides general background information concerning the increasing phenomenon of international migration on a global level in order to facilitate the consideration of the present topic in the light of the contemporary situation and challenges with respect to the presence of aliens in the territory of States. Part III addresses the scope of the topic which raises a number of important issues such as whether the Commission should consider: (1) the special rules that may apply to specific categories of aliens; (2) the similar measures that may be taken by States to compel the departure of aliens; (3) the expulsion of aliens in time of armed conflict; and (4) the collective expulsion and the mass expulsion of aliens. Part IV draws attention to the potential relevance of a number of terms for purposes of the consideration of the present topic. Some of these terms relate to the notion of “alien” and specific categories of aliens, including: illegal alien, resident alien, migrant worker, family, refugee, asylee, asylum seeker, stateless person, former national and enemy alien. The other terms relate to the action taken by a State to compel the departure of an alien. The paper suggests a functional approach to the 2 A/CN.4/565 notion of “expulsion” notwithstanding the different terms that may be used in national legal systems for measures which perform the same function. The paper also suggests distinguishing between the expulsion of an alien in terms of the decision to expel and the implementation of the decision by means of voluntary departure or deportation. National legal systems vary in the use of the terms “expulsion” and “deportation”. The two terms are used for purposes of the present study to facilitate the consideration of the substantive and procedural requirements that apply to the expulsion of an alien and the implementation of the decision to expel. Parts V to IX address the right of a State to expel an alien from its territory, the general limitations on the right of expulsion under traditional and contemporary international law as well as the more specific substantive and procedural requirements concerning the grounds and other considerations relating to the decision to expel an alien, the procedural requirements for the expulsion of an alien, and the implementation of the expulsion decision by voluntary means or deportation. Part X deals with the special considerations that may apply to the expulsion of specific categories of aliens, such as illegal aliens, resident aliens, migrant workers, minor children, refugees, stateless persons, former nationals and enemy aliens in time of armed conflict. Part XI briefly discusses the possible forms of reparation for the unlawful expulsion of aliens based on State practice, including restitution, compensation and satisfaction. It also briefly discusses issues relating to the burden of proof in such cases. Part XII provides a general overview of the issues and relevant materials relating to the collective expulsion and the mass expulsion of aliens in contrast to the expulsion of one or more individual aliens to facilitate the decision as to whether such expulsions should be included within the scope of the present topic. Given the significant differences in the legal regimes governing individual expulsions, collective expulsions and mass expulsions, the Commission may wish to consider addressing them in separate parts or chapters of its work if it decides to undertake these aspects of the topic. Annex I contains an extensive selected bibliography of the relevant materials that were used in the preparation of the study, including: treaties and similar documents; international jurisprudence; the practice of international organizations, regional organizations and treaty-monitoring bodies; the national laws of States; the national jurisprudence of States; literature; and reports of non- governmental organizations. Annex II provides a list of the abbreviations for the national laws of various States which are cited throughout the study. 3 A/CN.4/565 Contents Paragraphs Page I.

  • Statelesness
    Ausgabe 1, Band 5 – November 2009 Statelesness Hannah Arendt Berkeley [pencilled] 4/22/55 Vorbemerkung der Redaktion: Unter dem Titel „Statelessness“ und dem Datum 22. April 1955 hat Hannah Arendt eine vierseitige Vortragsskizze hinterlassen, die unter den „Hannah Arendt Papers“ der Library of Congress eingesehen werden kann. Das Manuskript enthält ausserdem von Arendts Hand den Hinweis „Berkeley“, woraus zu schließen ist, dass es sich um einen Vortrag an der University of California at Berkeley handelt, wo Arendt im Frühjahrssemester 1955 lehrte. In einem Brief vom Dienstag, den 19. April 1955, schreibt Arendt an ihren Mann, Heinrich Blücher: „Morgen muß ich im Historiker-Club sprechen, Freitag bei den Vereinigten Soziologen und Political Science-Studenten [...]“. Der letztgenannten Vortragsverpflichtung ordnen wir das Manuskript „Statelessness“ zu. Wir haben es transkribiert, durchgesehen und reproduzieren es hier mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Hannah Arendt Bluecher Literary Trust. Zur Erläuterung sei noch angefügt: - John Hope Simpson veröffentlichte 1939 sein Buch The Refugee Problem, auf das sich Hannah Arendt offenbar bezieht. - Mit „Childs“ ist wahrscheinlich der folgende Titel gemeint, den Hannah Arendt mehrfach in Elemente und Ursprünge totaler Herrschaft zitiert: Stephen Lawford Childs, „Refugees – A Permanent Problem in International Organization“, in: War Is Not Inevitable, Problems of Peace, 13th series published by the International Labor Office, London 1938. 1. Topical problem even in this country. 2. Recent phenomenon after WWI: Before this a freak: either de nationalité indeterminée or denaturalization by US. Both not important, except the only ones which are recognized. 3. Important after WWI. After WWI: Russia, Armenia, Hungary, Italy, Germany, the Balkans, Spanish Army. Spread after WWII.

    Italian Secrets: How Omertà Kept An Experience Quiet By Raul A. Rubio Fort Missoula, Montana. 1942. Courtesy of the K. Ross Toole Archives, University of Montana at Missoula (Number 84-295, Pierce Coll.) Densho ID: denshopd-i44-00003 “In silence and movement you can show the reflection of people.” – Marcel Marceau Upon hearing the word, internment, a slew of images and connotations materialize without control. These images are not fictitious. They are very real. A train station is pictured. A long line of men in suits and women in pearls stand on the platform for that train. The children cling to each other and to their mother’s coats. A lone suitcase, erect and still and as honorable as those whose lives are on the verge of uncertainty. Internment. The images are inescapable. The sad story of what Americans can do when gripped with fear to a people whose only crime was the possession of a last name, a language, and a culture. The Japanese were taken from their homes, their businesses destroyed, and their families shattered. These are the images that emerge when the word internment is spoken. Most of the narrative, scholarship, and history of internment, center on the Japanese and Japanese American experience. This is terribly incomplete. The U.S. had declared war on Japan. The enemies were the Japanese. There were, however, other enemies. These enemies were branded “enemy aliens.” The “enemy aliens” were not exclusively Japanese. The U.S. was entering a world war against not only the Japanse, but also the Axis Powers. The Axis Powers were our enemies.

Without his full-hearted support and his enduring commitment my research would not have materialised. I am further deeply indebted to Dr. Michael Willis who dedicated his precious time to discuss with me issues pertaining to my research. Special thanks also goes to Dr. Philip Robins, Senior Tutor at St. Antony’s College, for having supported my field work in Germany in the summer vacation of 2006 with a grant from the Carr and Stahl Funds, and to the Hebrew and Jewish Studies Committee and Near and Middle Eastern Studies Committee for having awarded me two research grants to finance my field work in Israel in the winter of 2006. Without listing everyone personally, I would like to thank all my interview partners as well as colleagues and friends who shared with me their thoughts on the nature of the Israeli-German relationship. Having said all this, it is only due to my mother and my boyfriend Joe who have supported me throughout six not always easy years that I have been able to study at Oxford.

  • Bedau’S Introduction Sets out the Issues and Shows How the Various Authors Shed Light on Each Aspect of Them
    CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE in focus How can civil disobedience be defined and distinguished from revolution or lawful protest? What, if anything, justifies civil disobedience? Can nonviolent civil disobedience ever be effective? The issues surrounding civil disobedience have been discussed since at least 399 BC and, in the wake of such recent events as the protest at Tiananmen Square, are still of great relevance. By presenting classic and current philosophical reflections on the issues, this book presents all the basic materials needed for a philosophical assessment of the nature and justification of civil disobedience. The pieces included range from classic statements by Plato, Thoreau, and Martin Luther King, to essays by leading contemporary thinkers such as Rawls, Raz, and Singer. Hugo Adam Bedau’s introduction sets out the issues and shows how the various authors shed light on each aspect of them. Hugo Adam Bedau is Austin Fletcher Professor of Philosophy at Tufts University.

  • ITALIANS in the UNITED STATES DURING WORLD WAR II Mary
    LAW, SECURITY, AND ETHNIC PROFILING: ITALIANS IN THE UNITED STATES DURING WORLD WAR II Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Wayne E. Lee Richard H. Kohn Eric L. Muller Zaragosa Vargas Heather Williams ©2013 Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas: Law, Security, and Ethnic Profiling: Italians in the United States During World War II (under the direction of Wayne E. Lee) The story of internment and other restrictions during World War II is about how the U.S. government categorized persons within the United States from belligerent nations based on citizenship and race and thereby made assumptions about their loyalty and the national security risk that they presented. This dissertation examines how agencies of the federal government interacted to create and enact various restrictions on close to 700,000 Italian aliens residing in the United States, including internment for certain individuals, and how and why those policies changed during the course of the war. Against the backdrop of wartime emergency, federal decision makers created policies of ethnic-based criteria in response to national security fears, but an analysis of the political maturity of Italian Americans and their assimilation into American society by World War II helps explain their community’s ability to avoid mass evacuation and internment. Based on the internment case files for 343 individuals, this dissertation provides the first social profile of the Italian civilian internees and explains the apparent basis for the government’s identification of certain aliens as “dangerous,” such as predilections for loyalty to Italy and Fascist beliefs, as opposed to the respectful demeanor and appreciation of American democracy characterizing potentially good citizens.
