Palestinian Refugee Repatriation: Global Perspectives: Routledge Studies in Middle Eastern Politics

Editat de Michael Dumper
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 noi 2006
The repatriation of Palestinians is a highly topical issue, and a critical component of any future peace process for Israel/Palestine. Until now, the mechanics of repatriation have not been dealt with in detail. This book explores the notion that the Palestinian refugee case is exceptional through the comparative study of refugee repatriation, and by asking:
*to what extent can the Palestinian case be said to be unique?
*where are the divergences, the overlaps and points of similarity with other refugee situations?
*what lessons can be drawn from these comparisons?
*how can these lessons inform refugee organizations, the donor community and policy makers?
The expert contributors examine the contextual and methodological field, reviewing the trends in forced migration and refugee studies as well as studying the historical and political background of UNHCR and the negotiations around the Palestinian refugee issue. Taking a comparative approach the book incorporates case studies of specific refugee situations from around the world, revealing key issues in the formulation of repatriation programmes and highlighting lessons to be learnt.

Descriere

This book provides a comparative examination of a number of different refugee return situations in order to identify pre-requisites for an effective and durable Palestinian repatriation programme. It contains contributions from members of the UN and other NGOs as well as academics.
"The various papers are serious, academic works that address the complex issues; they deal with the problems presented by repatriation, including a sense of failure among refugees that they were not accepted by the host country, changes in the homeland that make return problematic, and changes in the refugees themselves, which make it impossible for them to resume former lives."
- from review in Middle East Quarterly

Recenzii

'The volume deserves praise for offering a fresh and imaginative perspective on very difficult questions. ...It is thus recommended reading for scholars of forced migration and offers often overlooked insight for students of Palestinian affairs' - Wendy Pearlman, International Journal of Middle East Studies, February 2009
