Whether precipitated by political or environmental factors, human
displacement can be more fully understood by attending to the ways
in which a set of bodily, material, imagined and virtual mobilities
and immobilities interact to produce population movement. Very
little work, however, has addressed the fertile middle ground
between mobilities and forced migration. This book sets out the
ways in which theories of mobilities can enrich forced migration
studies as well as some of the insights into mobilities that forced
migration research offers. The book covers the challenges faced by
both forced migrants and receiving authorities. It applies these
challenges to regions such as the Middle East, South Asia and East
Africa. In particular, the chapter on Iraq to Jordan foced
migration tests the sincerity of the concept of Pan-Arabism; the
chapters on Bangladesh and Ethiopia deal with the more historically
familiar variables of warfare and famine as drivers of forced
migration. This book will be of value to practitioners in the area
of human rights and to scholars of racial and ethnic politics,
human geography and globalization. This book was published as a
special issue of Mobilities.
