Palestinian children and young people living both within and
outside of refugee camps in the Middle East are the focus of this
book. For more than half a century these children and their
caregivers have lived a temporary existence in the dramatic and
politically volatile landscape that is the Middle East. These
children have been captive to various sorts of stereotyping, both
academic and popular. They have been objectified, much as their
parents and grandparents, as passive victims without the benefit of
international protection. And they have become the beneficiaries of
numerous humanitarian aid packages which presume the primacy of the
Western model of child development as well as the psycho-social
approach to intervention. Giving voice to individual children, in
the context of their households and their community, this book aims
to move beyond the stereotypes and Western-based models to explore
the impact that forced migration and prolonged conflict have had,
and continue to have, on the lives of these refugee children.
