Abstract

During the 1960s, the international refugee regime was transformed significantly. While an international declaration on the right of asylum was being discussed in the United Nations, state practices of asylum changed with new refugee movements. This chapter considers three distinct moments that reveal different aspects of asylum. One concerns reactions to the independence of Algeria and the flow of expatriates into France. The French Muslims and French Algerians had especially strong reasons to flee for asylum in France; they were not admitted as refugees but rather as repatriates.
