Description
Forced Migration by Patricia Hynes provides an accessible guide to this critical subject. This book outlines key definitions and concepts, as well as various forms of forced migration, in a way that's both technical and easy to understand. Drawing on the author's decades of experience in teaching and working with refugees, this book invites readers to question how labels and definitions are used in legal, policy, and practice responses. It also offers practical insights into the lives and realities of forced migrants. With its handy Key Thinker boxes summarising influential research, Forced Migration is a valuable resource for those studying migration and diaspora studies, as well as policymakers, practitioners, journalists, volunteers, and aid workers working with refugees.
