Exploring experiences, interpretations and practices of 'refugees,' 'the internally displaced' and 'returnees' in or emerging from societies in violent conflict, this volume challenges prevailing orthodoxies and encourages new developments in refugee studies. It also addresses the ethics and politics of interventions by professionals and policy makers, using case studies of refugees from or in South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and the Americas. These illustrate the dynamic nature of situations where refugees, policy- makers and practitioners interact in trying to construct new livelihoods in transforming societies. Without a proper understanding of this dynamic nature, so the volume argues overall, it is not possible to develop successful strategies for the accommodation and integration of refugees.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 526gContributor: Philomena Essed (Edited by), Georg Frerks (Edited by), Joke Schrijvers (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesBook Series: Forced MigrationAuthor: Georg FrerksRelease Year: 2004 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
