PIL.OTv0.57.7
The article examines alternatives to immigration detention in international and comparative law, focusing on how such measures can be understood as restrictions on migrants’ fundamental rights and freedoms that are less severe than administrative detention. The author notes that these alternatives were introduced into Turkish law by the amendment of 6 December 2019, that Turkish scholarship on the subject remains limited, and that the article surveys the European Convention on Human Rights, the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights, and the regulation and practice in the United Kingdom, Canada and Austria before offering observations and recommendations for Turkey.
