Description
Refuge: Transforming a Broken Refugee System offers a new vision for responding to the European refugee crisis. Alexander Betts and Paul Collier argue that institutions created in the post-war era are no longer fit for purpose, and that a more humane and effective approach is needed.
The authors show that refugees can offer significant economic benefits to their adopted countries if given the right to work and education. This book sets out an alternative vision that empowers refugees to help themselves, contribute to their host societies, and even rebuild their countries of origin.
