Product Description
This topical new book offers an authoritative analysis of forced migration in the age of globalization. It looks critically at histories of migration, exploring the constructed nature of the refugee. The book then goes on to consider the changing patterns of migration and the refugee experience of displacement, flight and the search for asylum, identifying the conflicts and contradictions inherent in the global system. Offering a critical analysis of refugee policy in Europe, North America and Australia, "Refugees in a Globa Era" is a critical reading for all students seeking to understand the position of refugees today.
