Beskrivning
During the past decade, Syria’s displacement crisis has made the Middle East one of the world’s foremost refugee-hosting regions. The measures to prevent refugees and migrants from leaving the region, and returning those who do, has made the region a zone of containment where millions remain displaced. The volume explores responses to mass migration and traces the genealogy of humanitarian containment from the Ottoman Empire and the emergence of the first refugee camps to the present-day displacement ‘crises’ and the re-bordering of Europe.

Recensioner i media

“Overall, this book offers a comprehensive theoretical and empirical analysis of the politics of containment in the Middle East, providing an analytical framework that can prove valuable in understanding similar dynamics in other regions. With its inter- disciplinary approach, the book appeals not only to migration scholars but also to urban anthropologists and policymakers. Throughout the book, the editors ensure a logical and seamless flow of arguments, helping readers better understand the various elements of humanitarian containment discussed in each chapter.” • Migration and Society
