This edited volume investigates the political and socioeconomic
impact of the Syrian refugee crisis on Lebanon and Jordan, and
these countries' mechanisms to cope with the rapid influx of
refugees. The sudden population increase has resulted in severe
pressures on infrastructures and services, as well as growing
social tensions between the refugees and host communities. These
chapters use a transdisciplinary approach to analyse the
repercussions of the humanitarian tragedy at three different
levels: 1) the changing governmental policies of the two countries
towards the crisis; 2) the different perceptions of the Jordanian
and Lebanese local communities on the Syrian refugees; and 3) the
role played by NGOs and the civil society in both countries in
dealing with protracted humanitarian emergencies.
