"What is so remarkable about their book is its blend of theoretical sophistication with real-world political savvy. As such, it is of interest and importance to academics and those who contend, in a practical way, with the scandal of protracted refugee situations in the world today." - Michael R. Marrus, author of The Unwanted: European Refugees in the Twentieth Century  

 

Howard Adelman and Elazar Barkan review cases of ethnic displacement throughout the twentieth century in Europe, Asia, and Africa and argue that the emphasis on repatriation during the last several decades has obscured other options, leaving refugees to spend years warehoused in camps. Repatriation takes place when identity, defined by ethnicity or religion, is not at the center of the displacing conflict, or when the ethnic group to which the refugees belong are not a minority in their original country or in the region to which they want to return. Rather than perpetuate a ritual belief in return as a right without the prospect of realization, Adelman and Barkan call for solutions that bracket return as a primary focus in cases of ethnic conflict.
