At the start of the 1990s, there was great optimism that the end of
the Cold War might also mean the end of the "refugee cycle" - both
a breaking of the cycle of violence, persecution and flight, and
the completion of the cycle for those able to return to their
homes. The 1990s, it was hoped, would become the "decade of
repatriation." However, although over nine million refugees were
repatriated worldwide between 1991 and 1995, there are reasons to
believe that it will not necessarily be a durable solution for
refugees. It certainly has become clear that "the end of the
refugee cycle" has been much more complex, and ultimately more
elusive, than expected. The changing constructions and realities of
refugee repatriation provide the backdrop for this book which
presents new empirical research on examples of refugee repatriation
and reconstruction. Apart from providing up-to-date material, it
also fills a more fundamental gap in the literature which has
tended to be based on pedagogical reasoning rather than actual
field research. Adopting a global perspective, this volume draws
together conclusions from highly varied experiences of refugee
repatriation and defines repatriation and reconstruction as part of
a wider and interrelated refugee cycle of displacement, exile and
return. The contributions come from authors with a wealth of
relevant practical and academic experience, spanning the continents
of Africa, Asia, Central America, and Europe.
