Caracteristici
Presents a unique analysis that is specifically absent in the literature on the Syrian refugee 'crisis' where objects of study are treated as actors with agency, breaking the traditional stereotype of 'the refugee'

Recenzii
This is a luminous book of courage and stoicism in women's voices from a hidden world of cruelties. Meticulous research and analysis reveal unique structural and gendered discrimination and violencefaced in Jordan by Palestinian refugee women and girls from Syria. This is a new and shocking indictment of the failure of the UN and international aid agencies to protect.
Thanks to her unique access, Afaf Jabiri sheds a much-needed light on the lived experiences of Palestinian women attempting to escape war-torn Syria and finding themselves rejected at Jordan's borders. The women's stories in this book are a painful and lucid portrayal of what it means to be undesirable, as the core of a "Palestinian condition" . This book is a must read for anyone interested in how racism in the form of anti-Palestinianism impacts the lives and identities of a multiple times displaced population.
