Refugees and Forced Displacement
Author: Edward Newman
Publisher: Manas Publications
ISBN: 9788170491965
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
The orthodox definition of international security put human displacement and refugees at the periphery. In contrast, this book demonstrates that human displacement can be both a cause and a consequence of conflict within and among societies. As such, the management of refugee movements and the protection of displaced people should be a part of security policy.
