This study makes a synopotic analysis of the inadequate recognition of migrants' human rights in international and national law and discusses some of the main practical obstacles that make it even more difficult for them to enjoy their human rights. It then focuses on migrants' heightened vulnerability to human rights abuses in certain special situations during the displacement process.
