Molly Fee: Believing in Light after Darkness, Gebunden

Klappentext

War, persecution, and climate change force people from their homes and across borders. Most refugees remain in difficult conditions in neighboring countries. The less than one percent of refugees offered resettlement to another country gain access to an alternative path forward with specialized supports and services traditionally understood as a program of integration and a solution to displacement.

By examining the complexities of refugees' lived experiences, Molly Fee's deeply humanistic ethnography reframes resettlement as a period of disruption and disorientation as newly arrived refugees navigate the rules and expectations of a new country. Rather than a solution that marks the end of displacement, resettlement becomes another uprooting for refugees who have already rebuilt their lives numerous times. Believing in Light after Darkness reveals how humanitarian solutions do not immediately resolve the conditions of displacement.
