The camps now constitute towns and villages of their own, with ad hoc social and political systems and complicated relationships with the governments that house them. In After Involuntary Migration Milica Bookman provides the first comprehensive analysis of the political economies of refugee camps. Drawing on research from in-depth studies of over thirty such settlements, the book illustrates the economic interaction between the camps and their neighboring host communities. Bookman examines the forms of legitimate and illegitimate discrimination that restricts the camps'' participation in their host economies and explores the different ways democratic, market-oriented countries and those with command economies approach the camps on their fringes. With emphasis on the social politics of the encampments, After Involuntary M\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[This work] is challenging, thought provoking, and it is certainly refreshing to find an analysis of refugeehood from the perspective of political economy. While political economists have looked at integration issues, actually taking the encampment as the heart of the analysis is something new, and very useful. It has to be hoped that the volume inspires more input from economists to the study of forced migration, and it is certainly a valuable contribution in itself. -- Joanne van Selm, Migration Policy Institute\u003cbr\u003eThis sustained and systematic analysis of encampments is a very valuable contribution to the literature on refugee studies. -- Ralph Premdas, University of the West Indies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Introduction Chapter 2 Encampments in a Two-Tier World Chapter 3 The Microeconomy of Encampments Chapter 4 Encampments in the Domestic Pecking Order Chapter 5 Encampments in the International Economy: The Effect of Globalization Chapter 6 The Persistence of Nationalism and Conflict Chapter 7 Conclusion","brand":"Rlpg\/Galleys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037379330391,"sku":"9780739104262","price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780739104262.jpg?v=1750935539","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/after-involuntary-migration-9780739104262","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
