Refugees, Forced Migrants, and Human Tragedies: An Interdisciplinary Critical Perspective focuses on a sustained analysis of the nature of forced displacement with an emphasis on the attendant human tragedies that come with the forced displacement of people. It explores the connections in refugee, migrant, and IDPs themes with a goal to sketching out some ways of thinking about refugees, migrants, and IDPs through the different chapters.
The collection aims to answer the following questions: What discourses are created around refugees, asylum seekers, and internally displaced persons (IDPs) from different parts of the world? What is the relationship between those discourses and foreign policies and national politics in the North and South? With chapters from scholars and policy makers from different parts of the world experiencing the refugee and forced migration crises, this book will enhance the perceptions we have on these populations and help to make the policies that govern them.
Authoritative, provocative, and prescriptive in orientation; this books highlights a humanitarian crisis that constitutes a global embarrassment. Its interdisciplinary profile provides a framework for understanding the historical and lived experiences of affected persons offered in theoretical, empirical, and literary research traditions. -- Sati Fwatshak, University of Jos
Refugees, Forced Migrants, and Human Tragedies: An Interdisciplinary Critical Perspective provides insightful analysis and prognosis of the global refugee crisis and the plight of Internally Displacement Persons. The different chapters are written by experts in the field in very lucid language, providing different perspectives to Migration, Refugee and Displacement issues that would interest scholars, policy makers, as well as general interest readers. I recommend the book to anyone interested in Migration, Refugee and Displacement issues in any part of the globe. -- Ngozi Nwogwugwu, Babcock University
This is a timely book which will be valuable to both professionals and students alike. These are stories of human tragedies and triumphs despite borders and displacements and in spite of conflict. These are lived stories of migrants, which will be cherished for their veracity and which transcend nations and nationalist borders. -- J.P. Linstroth, Palm Beach State College
