While credibility assessment in asylum procedures has gained increased scholarly attention, this book stands out for its unique focus on narrative performance and assessment of oral testimony in Global North asylum policies. Readers will find invaluable data and empirical analysis of asylum interviews, as well as critical reflections on the global politics of migration management. This book is bound to become a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the interconnection between narrative performance and linguistic human rights in a refugee context.'

They must narrate the basis of their claims in person, often before a single decision-maker, repeatedly and at length. In Judging Refugees Anthea Vogl investigates the black box of the refugee oral hearing and the politics of narrative within individualised processes for refugee status determination (RSD). Drawing on a rich archive of administrative oral hearings in Australia and Canada, Vogl sets global trends of diminished and fast-tracked RSD against the critical role played by the discretionary spaces of refugee decision-making, and the gate-keeping functions of credibility assessment. Judging Refugees explores the disciplining role of 'good refugee' stories within RSD and demonstrates that refugee applicants must be able to present their evidence in model Anglo-European narrative forms to be judged as authentic, credible and ultimately, to be granted access to protection.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1.
