About the Series
The crisis of internally displaced persons (IDPs) was first confronted in the 1980s, and the problems of those suffering from this type of forced migration has grown continually since then. This volume traces the normative,, legal, institutional, and political responses to the challenges of assisting and protecting IDPs.
Drawing on official and confidential documents as well as interviews with leading personalities, Internal Displacement provides an unparalleled analysis of this important issue and includes:
An exploration of the phenomenon of internal displacement and of policy research about it
A review of efforts to increase awareness about the plight of IDPs and the development of a legal framework to protect them
A "behind-the-scenes" look at the creation and evolution of the mandate of the Representative of the Secretary-General on IDPs
A variety of case studies illustrating the difficulties in overcoming the operational shortcomings within the UN system
A foreword by former UN high commissioner for refugees, Sadako Ogata.
Internal Displacement is written by two outstanding scholars and will appeal to students, scholars, and practitioners with interests in war and peace, forced migration, human rights and global governance.
Thomas G. Weiss is Presidential Professor of Political Science at The CUNY Graduate Center and Director of the Ralph Bunche Institute for International Studies, where he is co-director of the United Nations Intellectual History Project.
David A. Korn is a retired U.S. foreign service officer and former ambassador who served in overseas postings in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa
