Forced displacement and migration remain at the forefront of global political debates, and the Arab region has played an âoversized roleâ in hosting refugees. Yet a paucity of literature exists on how the region has contributed to shaping the international refugee regime.
This book presents the first comprehensive study of how Arab states interact with the international refugee regime. It presents a wide range of case studies and offers a multidisciplinary perspective bringing together political, legal, sociological, historical, and anthropological approaches. The book explores how Arab states have created norms and practices of refugee governance beyond â" and not necessarily aligned with â" international refugee law. It also analyses how Arab states, as norm challengers, have contested, reframed, and manipulated international practices, agreements and processes. This sheds new light on the political economy of displacement and interrogates the multilayered fields of power at work in creating, contesting and adapting norms of refuge and asylum. In doing so, the book âde-exceptionalizesâ the Arab region, casting Arab states as norm shapers with an impact on global politics beyond the Arab world.
