Fear of Persecution offers an absorbing and necessary overview of
the plight of internally displaced people (IDPs) and refugees.
Every year there are tens of millions of people around the world
who have fled or are in flight due to the fear of persecution based
upon race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social
group or political opinion, and who then become invisible. James D.
White and Anthony J. Marsella bring together essays that address
issues emerging from the current relationship of international law,
human rights, and refugee health and well-being. This book
discusses and critically analyzes the evolvement of international
responses and NGO's, the influence of the East/West cultural
binary, and possible frameworks for peace-building efforts. White
and Marsella provide a unique interdisciplinary approach to a
complex subject, mixing the views of leading academics, policy
analysts, senior officials from NGOS, and lawyers to consider the
situation from various angles. Fear of Persecution is a compelling
and comprehensive text that is sure to stimulate debate among
political theorists and those interested in international
relations.
