Description: Refugee Manipulation by Stephen John Stedman, Dr. Fred Tanner Since World War II, refugee organizations have faced a recurrent challenge: the manipulation of refugees by warring parties to further their own aims. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Focusing on the geopolitical security environment surrounding militarized camps and the response of humanitarian agencies, the contributors to this volume examine the ways armed groups manipulate refugees and how and why international actors assist their manipulation. They then offer suggestions for reducing the ability of such groups to use the suffering of refugees to their own advantage.

Review "the editors offer an informed and articulated set of policy options, underpinned by solid case study evidence. The book will be useful to policy makers in both the security and humanitarian industries, and its practical and clearly written style is recommended for academic audiences." —Karen Jacobsen, Tufts University, The International Journal of African Historical Studies|"A commendable examination of the problems of refugee relief, and the abuses that can arise....We need studies like this to remind us of the pitfalls that accompany good intentions and knee-jerk reactions to crises. One hopes that a copy will accompany every relief team that ventures forth." —Sol Schindler, The Washington Times, 9/9/2003|"...the book by Stedman and Tanner is a thorough examination of three of the great refugee movements in recent history: those in Afghanistan, Cambodia, and Rwanda." —Herb Thompson, The American University in Cairo, Journal of Contemporary Asia, 4/1/2004 Review Quote "the editors offer an informed and articulated set of policy options, underpinned by solid case study evidence.
