ІНСТИТУТ ПРАВА ПРИТУЛКУ В СУЧАСНОМУ МІЖНАРОДНОМУ ПРАВІ

Анотація. У статті досліджується історія зародження і розвитку інституту права притулку та розкривається його зміст. Автор розглядає співвідношення між правом притулку та правовим статусом біженців, а також характеризує основні види притулку.... (200-300 слів).

Ключові слова: право притулку, територіальний притулок, дипломатичний притулок, правовий режим біженців.

Постановка проблеми. Інститут права притулку відіграє специфічну роль у сучасному міжнародному праві. Перш за все він виступає достатньо дієвим механізмом міжнародного захисту прав і свобод людини від порушень з боку держави її громадянства. У той же час застосування права притулку нерідко розглядається як засіб політичного тиску у міжнародних відносинах і може спричиняти істотне зростання їхньої напруженості. Саме тому від виваженості міжнародно-правового регулювання відносин, пов’язаних із наданням притулку, значною мірою залежить як ефективність міжнародно-правових гарантій прав і свобод людини, так і стабільність міжнародних відносин.

Аналіз останніх досліджень і публікацій. Не дивлячись на актуальність зазначеної проблеми, у юридичній науці інституту права притулку приділяється недостатньо уваги.
