Global migration possesses a very diverse and dynamic nature. To gain a critical understanding of global migration, scholarly research and ideas need to revolve around sub-regional and interdisciplinary approaches. This book, Migration & Refugees: Global Patterns and Local Contexts, combines the editing skills and insights of three accomplished researchers, authors, and practitioners in the field. The collection of chapters weave together the themes detailed below while providing a diverse yet coherent point of reference for the readers.

Book themes:
• The Nexus between Migration and Mobility;
• Push and Pull: Refugee’s Life Choices;
• Refugee Journey and Trauma;
• The Geopolitical Analysis of Migration;
• Integration, Inclusion, or Assimilation: Policy Dilemma;
• Prospects of Refugees within the Socio-Economic Landscape of Host Communities;
• Women and Migration;
• Racism as a Challenge for Integration

Index


Keywords: Globalization, Migration, Integration, Displacement, Conflict, Geopolitics, International Response, Local Action, Minority, Psychology, Trauma

This book will interest both academics and practitioners. For practitioners and community organizers, the practical lessons in the book will provide a point of reference in the often ambiguous work of resettling refugees. Regarding academics, this book will make an excellent reader for migration studies, area studies, sociology, education, political science and psychology. We believe that this book would be best suited for the graduate level because the student would benefit from having a pre-existing schema. Also, students on study abroad or internships involving refugees would greatly benefit from this book.
