UNHCR provides a concise and comprehensive introduction to refugees and the United Nations agency that protects and assists them. Written by experts in the field, the book examines the relationship between global politics and the work of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). It explores how the organization has adapted to the changing circumstances of world politics and the changing nature of forced displacement since its creation over 60 years ago.
Drawing from the lessons of the past, it offers insights into how the organization will be able to navigate present and future challenges. This second edition is fully updated to consider recent challenges faced by UNHCR, including new chapters on the changing dynamics of forced migration, new analytical sections to explore the challenges of protection, solutions and cooperation, and a forward-looking conclusion to propose a framework for UNHCR's future direction.
