Book Synopsis
Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.
This edited collection provides new insights into refugee reception and camps by focusing on the overlap between local and global dynamics in the governance of camps.
Contributors examine how camps are (re)placed within their local contexts across regions including Africa, America, Asia, Europe and Oceania. They explore how local environments both influence, and are influenced by, global flows, networks and connections in the governance of refugee camps.
By highlighting these interconnections, this volume provides valuable insights for scholars, policy makers and practitioners seeking to understand the complex realities of refugee camps around the world.
Review Quotes
'This vital collection offers rare, incisive insights into the entangled local and global dynamics shaping refugee camps within a uniquely global frame.' Paolo Novak, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London
