“At a time when war is one of many causes of forced displacement, Gender, Violence, Refugees is an essential volume. The work’s chapters will encourage the reader to question her assumptions about forced migration, produce new avenues for research, and incentivize humanitarian interventions that do not reproduce stereotypes of refugee communities but rather incorporate ‘bottom-up’ approaches informed by the unique experiences and the long trajectories of migrants.” • Border Criminologies Blog, University of Oxford“There is much to commend in this book [that] is rich in both conceptual analysis and ethnographic detail… The collection represents a welcome addition to the literature because of the variety of analytical and disciplinary perspectives it employs to focus on the SGBV (sexual and gender-based violence) experienced by refugees and forced migrants in contexts that have, thus far, received insufficient academic attention.” • Journal of Refugee Studies“…an excellent read and contribution to the fields of refugee and gender studies…[that] should be a required reading for graduate students and scholars of (forced) migration and policymakers working with displaced populations.” • Gender & Society“As a collection, Gender, Violence, Refugees provide a crucial perspective from which to analyze and develop policy to address the challenge of forced migration now facing much of our world. With its emphasis on how gender affects the experience of refugees, the authors urgently point our attention to the often understudied and overlooked challenges of gender on migrant status, protection, economic stability, and continued vulnerability to violence for refugees and returnees.” • Refuge
