Beskrivning

The eBook editions of this book are available as open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on Bloomsbury Collections. 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 beyond – and not necessarily aligned with – international refugee law. It also analyses how Arab states have negotiated and contested international agreements and processes. In doing so, the book ‘de-exceptionalizes’ the Arab region, positioning states and societies as norm shapers with an impact on global politics beyond the Arab world.

Recensioner i media

Moving away from Eurocentric and Western-centric of migration studies and narratives, Chatty and Fakhoury gather an impressive set of researchers that provide the first systematic and coherent book that studies the agency of Arab world in refugee governance. Against the common assumption that essentialize Arab states as passive actors, this book is a needed addition to the work on decentering, and compiles fascinating accounts of how refugee governance norms are being shaped, contested, sometimes manipulated by various actors in the Arab world. This is a must-read for students, scholars and practitioners interested in migration and the MENA region.
