dc.description.abstractIn Chapter V, the focus is on gender violence and gender-based persecution against women as grounds for asylum claims. The starting-point of the chapter is that international conventions and national asylum policies have historically tended to overlook the specific position of female asylum-seekers and the gendered nature of refugee situations. The chapter identifies the legal developments that have taken place and highlights persisting deficits. The incoherence in the way different EU States handle gender-related asylum claims is noted with concern. It is argued that more attention should be given to the ways in which asylum systems contribute to the vulnerabilisation of women.en
