Refugee Governance in the Arab World
The eBook editions of this book are available as open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Sciences Po.
The Arab region has played an oversized role in hosting refugees. Yet a paucity of literature exists on how the region has contributed to shaping the international refugee regime.
This anthology presents the first comprehensive study of how Arab states interact with the international refugee regime. It offers a multidisciplinary perspective, bringing together historical, political, legal, sociological, and anthropological approaches.
Through a wide range of case studies, the anthology explores how Arab states have created norms and practices of refugee governance beyondâand not necessarily aligned withâinternational refugee law. It also analyses how Arab states have negotiated and contested international agreements and processes.
In doing so, Refugee Governance in the Arab World âde-exceptionalizesâ the Arab region, positioning states and societies as norm shapers with an impact on global politics beyond the Arab world.
