Zusatztext "... a valuable! innovative contribution to the anthropological study of refugee youth! as it focuses on refugee populations on  hich relatively little research has been done so far... [and offers] a sound methodological approach and rich qualitative data."   ·  Cordula Strocka ! Free University Berlin "This is a well-written! interesting text that offers several contributions to knowledge. First! it provides insight into the experiences of two long-standing refugee populations in the Middle East - Sahrawi and Afghan - for which there is little empirical data. Second! most chapters of the book adopt an inter-generational perspective! providing differential views and experiences of young people! adults and elders."   ·  Christina Clark !  Saint Paul University Informationen zum Autor Dawn Chatty is a Professor of Anthropology and Forced Migration and Director of the Refugee Studies Centre at Oxford University. Her publications include Conservation and Mobile Peoples: Displacement, Forced Settlement and Sustainable Development (co-ed.

Zusammenfassung The Sahrawi and Afghan refugee youth in the Middle East have been stereotyped regionally and internationally: some have been objectified as passive victims; others have become the beneficiaries of numerous humanitarian aid packages which presume the primacy of the Western model of child development.
