  • Refuge

    Rethinking Refugee Policy in a Changing World

    de Paul Collier, Alexander Betts ...
    Global refugee numbers are at their highest levels since the end of World War II, but the system in place to deal with them, based upon a humanitarian list of imagined "basic needs," has changed little. In Refuge, Paul Collier and Alexander Betts argue that the system fails to provide a comprehensive solution to the fundamental problem, which is how to reintegrate displaced people into society. ...

  • The Wealth of Refugees

    How Displaced People Can Build Economies

    de Alexander Betts ...
    We live in an age of displacement. Refugee numbers are increasing due to a proliferation of fragile states, and this problem will be exacerbated by climate change and the impact of COVID-19. And yet, rising populist nationalism has undermined the political willingness of rich countries to accept migrants and asylum seekers. Given these contradictory trends, how can we create sustainable refugee ... Leer más

  • Refugee Economies

    Forced Displacement and Development

    de Alexander Betts, Louise Bloom, Josiah Kaplan, Naohiko Omata ...
    Refugees have rarely been studied by economists. Despite some pioneering research on the economic lives of refugees, there remains a lack of theory and empirical data through which to understand, and build upon, refugees' own engagement with markets. Yet, understanding these economic systems may hold the key to rethinking our entire approach to refugee assistance. If we can improve our knowledge ... Leer más

  • Protection by Persuasion

    International Cooperation in the Refugee Regime

    de Alexander Betts ...
    States located near crisis zones are most likely to see an influx of people fleeing from manmade disasters; African states, for instance, are forced to accommodate and adjust to refugees more often than do European states far away from sites of upheaval. Geography dictates that states least able to pay the costs associated with refugees are those most likely to have them cross their borders. ... Leer más

    How Refugees Challenge Authoritarianism

Mobilising across borders, diasporas emerge to challenge such governments. This book offers an in-depth examination of the internal politics of transnational mobilisation.

  • The Global Governed?

    Refugees as Providers of Protection and Assistance

    de Kate Pincock, Alexander Betts, Evan Easton-Calabria ...
    Series series Cambridge Asylum and Migration Studies
    When refugees flee war and persecution, protection and assistance are usually provided by United Nations organisations and their NGO implementing partners. In camps and cities, the dominant humanitarian model remains premised upon a provider-beneficiary relationship. In parallel to this model, however, is a largely neglected story: refugees themselves frequently mobilise to create organisations or ... Leer más

  • Survival Migration

    Failed Governance and the Crisis of Displacement
