Uluslararası Standartlara Uyum: Birleşik Krallık ve Çocukların İdari Gözetimi

2010 yılı itibariyle İngiliz hükümeti çocukların göç hukuku düzenlemesi altında idari gözetim altına alınmasına yasak getirdi. Ancak, bu uygulama, 1971 yılından beri İngiltere göç sisteminin ayrılmaz bir parçası olarak yer almaktaydı. 1990’lardan itibaren uluslararası ve ulusal izleme kuruluşları ve sivil toplum örgütleri tarafından idari gözetime yönelik getirilen eleştiriler özellikle çocukların ve ailelerin de bu uygulama adı altında idari gözetim altına alınmasına odaklanmaktadır. Akkültürasyon teorisini bu vaka çalışmasına uygularken alınan sonuçlar göstermektedir ki ulusal izleme kuruluşları ve sivil toplum örgütleri karar vericiler ile sosyalleşmeyi sağlamış ve hükümeti çocukların idari gözetime alınması konusunda uluslararası insan hakları standartları ile uyumlu hareket etmeye itmiştir.

A Story of Compliance with International Standards: The United Kingdom and Immigration Detention of Children

In 2010, the UK banned detention of minors for immigration purposes. However, till this point immigration detention has been a significant part of the UK’s immigration law since 1971. Using this practice towards families and children led a wide scale of criticism by international and national monitoring bodies and civil society. While applying the acculturation approach to find out what type of relationship played an important role in the compliance decision, it was clear that national monitoring bodies and civil society managed to activate a socialisation mechanism and pushed the government to act towards compliance with international human rights standards.
