Future generations are timeless entities with intertemporal characteristics. The chapter is based on theoretical contributions with respect to intergenerational justice, intergenerational democracy and addressing future generations using present legal rights. Thus, sustainability in entrepreneurship is explained from an intergenerational perspective with a focus on its normative character in a socio-economic context. The chapter also contemplates whether justice or democracy should prevail in relation to future generations. The understanding of sustainability in relation to future generations and its refinement to address planetary boundaries, wellbeing and human needs is discussed and is linked to sustainable entrepreneurship and to the creation of entrepreneurial opportunities which detract from this new understanding of sustainability and the voice of future generations. In this chapter, enterprises and organizations are viewed as transgenerational communities for future generations. The findings of the research bring a new understanding of the literature regarding sustainable entrepreneurship and future generations whereas the chapter develops novel ideas about tangible and intangible needs of the communities for future generations.","PeriodicalId":42994,"journal":{"name":"Cambridge International Law Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"164-193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147891238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Feminist legal scholars were among the first to study gender-based persecution and did so by analyzing cases to reveal the legal logic that immigration officials used to grant or deny claims. This chapter outlines a qualitative mixed method approach to studying gender-based asylum claims. The mixed method approach used in this study included interviews, observations of immigration court asylum hearings, and content analysis of asylum applications. The value of using a mixed method approach is that it offers data that illuminates the process of how gender-based asylum claims are adjudicated. I argue that qualitative mixed methods help to paint a broader picture of the dynamics of the asylum process in the U.S. that contribute to understanding why cases are granted or denied. This chapter offers examples of the assumptions about gender-based persecution cases that immigration officials have and how those assumptions affect the outcome of a case.","PeriodicalId":42994,"journal":{"name":"Cambridge International Law Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"245-257"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147889832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As sponsorship programmes emerge and expand around the world, we consider the long-standing tensions within them that are evident from the Canadian experience. These tensions include different perspectives on the meaning of success; different priorities for selecting refugees; ongoing debates about the role of the government in relation to shared responsibility, privatisation, safeguards, and supports; and a potentially problematic relationship with asylum and other forms of refugee protection. As sponsorship expands, and as civil society welcomes displaced Ukrainians, these old tensions re-emerge in new contexts, along with new questions concerning the relationship between sponsorship and resettlement, legal status for sponsored refugees, and selection criteria. Ultimately, it is important to ensure that as sponsorship programmes expand, refugees are at the centre and complementary pathways indeed complement.","PeriodicalId":42994,"journal":{"name":"Cambridge International Law Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"95-111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147918041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many researchers and activists, however, have pointed to the fact that these laws and conventions were drafted on the basis of the situation of male refugees, ignoring the specific forms of violence and persecution experienced by women. And that, moreover, their application is often undermined by deeply gendered practices which fail to offer protection to women because their persecution is not recognised as such. These interpretations of refugee law through the bias of the experiences of male refugees and asylum applicants and their activities has both reflected and reinforced existing gender biases within states. The continuing gendered division of labour within most societies, as well as an underlying assumption of a ‘public-private’ division, undermines the gender neutrality of refugee law and practice by creating situations in which women’s experience of political activity or of persecution is not seen as relevant to the law. This means that issues such as the threat of forced marriage, for example, are often not considered seriously as grounds for granting asylum or may be assigned to ‘cultural differences’ which are part of the order of things. Another consequence of this public-private division is that forms of persecution related to women’s ‘private’ behaviour, for example their refusal to adhere to certain dress codes, or to violence that takes place within the ‘private’ sphere of the family, such as violence committed by a husband, father or another family member, may not be recognised as grounds for granting refugee status.","PeriodicalId":42994,"journal":{"name":"Cambridge International Law Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"251-266"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147913723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
