Olga Maya Demetriou is Associate Professor in Post Conflict Reconstruction and State-Building, at the Durham Global Security Institute, School of Government and International Affairs, Durham University. She is the author of Capricious Borders: Minority, Population, and Counter-Conduct Between Greece and Turkey.

"This book offers a number of important insights with respect to refugees and refugeehood. Through the notion of 'minor' losses, rather than the conventional focus on 'big' losses, the author argues that refugees do not move from conflict to safety but from one conflict into another, or rather into a complexity of conflicting and conflictual situations and circumstances. The idea that 'minor' losses are not incidental to refugeehood but an intrinsic part of the wider issues at play is an important insight." — Leonie Ansems de Vries, author of Re-Imagining a Politics of Life: From Governance of Order to Politics of Movement
