Looking at refugee crises in Asia, Latin America, and Africa, this book is the first systematic attempt to explain why the developing world today is producing so many refugees. Using both structural and transnational interdisciplinary approaches, the authors show how prevailing concepts and international institutions that deal with refugees emerged from the historical experience of Europe and were shaped by international politics in the post World War II era. The authors conclude by assessing the prospects for further refugee-producing conflicts and the policy implications for receiving states and humanitarian bodies.

The magnitude of refugees movements in the Third World, widely perceived as an unprecedented crisis, has generated widespread concern in the West. This concern reveals itself as an ambiguous mixture of heartfelt compassion for the plight of the unfortunates cast adrift and a diffuse fear that they will come "pouring in." In this comprehensive study, the authors examine the refugee flows originating in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and suggest how a better understanding of this phenomenon can be used by the international community to assist those in greatest need. Reviewing the history of refugee movements in the West, they show how their formation and the fate of endangered populations have also been shaped by the partisan objectives of receiving countries. They survey the kinds of social conflicts characteristic of different regions of the Third World and the ways refugees and refugee policy are made to serve broader political purposes.
