Flygtninge og politisk asyl

"The startling, vivid debut novel by Alexey Navalny's press secretary, following a woman who is arrested at an anticorruption rally in Moscow and sentenced to ten days in a special detention center, where she shares a cell with five other women from all walks of life. The Incredible Events in Women's Cell Number 3 is the debut novel by Kira Yarmysh that follows a young woman, Anya, who is arrested at a Moscow anticorruption rally and, under false charges, sentenced to a ten-day stretch at a special detention center. In a large barren room furnished only by communal bunkbeds, Anya meets her cellmates: five ordinary Russian women arrested on petty charges. They come from all strata and experiences of Russian society, and as they pass the long hours waiting to be released, they slowly build trust and companionship while sipping lukewarm tea in plastic cups and playing games. Above all, they talk: about politics, feminism, their families, their sexualities, and how to make the most of prison life. Yet as the waking days stretch listlessly before Anya, soon she is plagued by strange nightmarish visions and begins to wonder if her cellmates might not actually be as ordinary as they seem. Will the facade of everyday life ultimately crack for good? A brilliant exploration of what it means to be marginalized both as an independent woman and in an increasingly intolerant Russia in particular, and a powerful prison story that renews a grand Russian tradition, The Incredible Events in Women's Cell Number 3 introduces one of the most urgent and gripping new voices in international literature"--

In the face of adversity, refugees are forced to flee their usual places of residence and seek asylum in other countries. During such periods, many refugees are uprooted from their familiar ways of life. Besides experiencing violence during war or when fleeing to countries of asylum (Horn, 2010a, 2010b; International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, 1999; Ossome, 2010; Pittaway, 2004), some people are separated from relatives and friends, and thus experience a breakdown of social networks that usually provide support (Cernea, 1991; Matsuoka & Sorenson, 1999; Rousseau et al., 2001; Schweitzer et al., 2006). The period after displacement is usually marked by uncertainties, since refugees find it difficult to plan for their lives until they return home, obtain adequate support in countries of asylum, or settle permanently in another country.

Families are actors and drivers in migration and refugee crises. However, the current protection frameworks privilege the individual over the family unit. Consequently, the stories of families in migration have remained under-researched and their challenges under-addressed. This volume explores the interplay between family, separation, and migration in the Middle East, West Africa, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America, and in the context of the 2015 global refugee crisis. Guiding it are two questions: How do family, migration, and separation play out across geographical, political, and historical contexts? And what are the gaps in the protection of migrants and their families? Thirteen authors ¿ academics and practitioners ¿ discuss the international protection for refugees, migration governance, child mobility, disability and immigration, human trafficking, and dilemmas in refugee reporting. The book proposes a paradigm shift in the way we cater to the needs and aspirations of families on the move. Its authors offer evidence-based solutions that cut across polarized discussions on migration and refugees. As such, the volume is aimed at researchers, students, policymakers, and experts working in international relations, migration, human rights, and refugee protection.

Today the UNHCR is present in more than 130 countries and takes care of some 90 million people. This book looks at how it is deployed and who its agents are. By taking the reader through the offices in charge of the Afghan refugee crisis during the 2000s, in Geneva and in Kabul, the book shows the internal functioning of this international organization. It provides analysis of Afghan refugee policies from an original position, with the author being both agency official and anthropologist, and articulates multiple levels of analysis: the micropolitics of practices as much as the institution and the multi-scalar power relations that shape its environment.

Con esta obra se presenta un mosaico que ayuda a esclarecer la dinámica migratoria partiendo de una visión global, enfatizando la dinámica regional y poniendo el reflector sobre México como país de origen, tránsito, destino y retorno. Los artículos que integran el libro analizan cuestiones específicas que brindan una radiografía de las fallas y oportunidades que tiene nuestro sistema de gestión de los movimientos de población y que impactan en los aspectos más cotidianos y básicos de la vida de las personas migrantes y refugiadas.   A partir de estos textos podemos comprender que las políticas migratorias no obedecen a la realidad de un mundo globalizado ni a las necesidades de los mercados laborales o a la economía, ni tampoco a la realidad demográfica del Norte Global. Se contraponen, incluso, al sentido común, y se basan en el miedo, la discriminación y los prejuicios.   Así, esta obra es una oportunidad para mirar de manera diferente las migraciones, que deben ser gestionadas de una manera más humana y aprovechadas como motor de desarrollo.» ANA MERCEDES SAIZ VALENZUELA (COORDINADORA)Con la participación de: Sandra Elizabeth Álvarez Orozco; Bernardo Bolaños Guerra; Allert Brown-Gort; Leticia Calderón Chelius; Rodolfo Cruz Piñeiro; Jorge Durand; Alethia Fernández de la Reguera Ahedo; Pilar Fuerte Celis; Rodolfo García Zamora; Selene Gaspar Olvera; Carlos Heredia Zubieta; Melissa Hernández Jasso; Alfredo Limas Hernández; Marcelo Olivera Villarroel; Elisa Ortega Velázquez; María Fernanda Rivero Benfield; Martha Luz Rojas Wiesner; Genoveva Roldán Dávila; Ana Mercedes Saiz Valenzuela; Camelia TigauENGLISH DESCRIPTIONIn this work we have a mosaic that helps clarify the migration process from a global perspective, underlying regional dynamics and casting a light over Mexico as a country of origin and transit, a destination and a place to go back to.  "The articles that make up the book discuss specific issues and provide an x-ray of the failures and opportunities Mexico’s management system has regarding the population shifts that impact the most basic, everyday aspects in the lives of migrants and refugees.   From these texts we understand that migration politics do not respond to the reality of a globalized world, nor to the needs of the labor markets and the economy, nor to the demographic reality of the Global North. They even oppose common sense and are based on fear, discrimination, and prejudices.   Thus, this work is an opportunity to look at migrations with a different eye, since they must be handled in a more humane way and seized as a driving force for development.” —ANA MERCEDES SAIZ VALENZUELA (COORDINATOR)   With the participation of: Sandra Elizabeth Álvarez Orozco; Bernardo Bolaños Guerra; Allert Brown-Gort; Leticia Calderón Chelius; Rodolfo Cruz Piñeiro; Jorge Durand; Alethia Fernández de la Reguera Ahedo; Pilar Fuerte Celis; Rodolfo García Zamora; Selene Gaspar Olvera; Carlos Heredia Zubieta; Melissa Hernández Jasso; Alfredo Limas Hernández; Marcelo Olivera Villarroel; Elisa Ortega Velázquez; María Fernanda Rivero Benfield; Martha Luz Rojas Wiesner; Genoveva Roldán Dávila; Ana Mercedes Saiz Valenzuela; Camelia Tigau.

"Red Crow became the leader of the Bloods in 1870...the story of the chief's life as told by him in 1890 to R.N. Wilson...a story of horse stealing and many battles but it also shows the chief had mercy." -Calgary Herald, Feb. 17, 1967"As chief, Red Crow was always ready to defend Blood territory...in 1871 he led 60 warriors on a strike on a Crow camp...won most of the battles of his life." -Edmonton Journal, July 1, 2005"Red Crow, a lineal descendent of the great Blood chieftains, was the most powerful and respected chief to enter the Treaty Seven negotiations." - Medicine that Walks: Disease, Medicine and Canadian Plains Native People (2001)"In the shadowy corner of history stands a mighty figure ¿ Red Crow of the numerous and powerful Bloods...a notable and eminently successful warrior...the hero of more than 30 principal adventures (as he is recorded to have told them to the late R.N. Wilson)." -Calgary Herald, Jan. 14, 1956Why did Chief Red Crow of the Bloods tribe lead his warriors and Blackfeet allies on numerous raids against the neighboring Gros Ventre, Snake, Nez Percé, and Crow tribes in the regions surrounding Montana?In 1891, Chief Red Crow (c. 1830 - August 28, 1900) would dictate his life story to Robert Nathaniel Wilson (1863-1944) who had served with the Northwest Mounted Police at Fort MacLeod in Alberta. Red Crow's biography would be published in written form in 1891 by Wilson as "The Life and Adventures of Red Crow, Formerly Head Chief of the Bloods." It would go on to be reprinted in various publications over the years.Red Crow was born in Kainai territory in modern Alberta to Black Bear and Handsome Woman, and was a descendant of tribal chiefs. He earned a reputation as a warrior during raids against other Indigenous groups in the 1840s and 1850s. As indicated in his biography, Red Crow engaged in 33, sometimes ruthless, episodes against Crees, Crows, Snakes, and Nez Percés. That Red Crow combined boldness with caution is indicated by is final statement: "I was never struck by an enemy in my life, with bullet, arrow, axe, spear, or knife."

Syrian refugees who gained asylum in Germany following the so-called refugee crisis in 2015 quickly entered into an 'integration regime' which produced a binary notion of 'well integrated' migrants versus refugees falling short of the narrow social and political definitions of a 'good' refugee. Etzel's rich ethnographic study shows how refugees navigated this conditional inclusion. While some asylum seekers gained international protection, others were left with limited agency to demand government accountability for the ever-moving target of integration. Putting a spotlight on the inconsistencies and failings of a universal approach to integration, this is an important contribution to the wider field of migration and anthropology of the state.

Said Al-Wahid har altid sit pas på sig, selv når han skal i supermarkedet. På vej hjem fra en oplæsning får han besked om, at hans mor ligger for døden, og derfor rejser han for første gang i årevis tilbage til sit hjemland, Irak.Jo tættere Said kommer på sin familie i Bagdad, jo dybere stikker hans erindringer. De bevæger sig tilbage til årene før hans ankomst til Tyskland, til de måneder, han tilbragte på flugt gennem Afrika og mod Europa, og helt tilbage til øjeblikke fra hans barndom i Irak.Men hvilke erindringer gør os til dem, vi er? Hvilke minder mangler, hvilke er forvrængede, og hvilke er det pure opspind? Said ved det ikke længere, og måske er det årsagen til, han overhovedet er i live.Erindringsforfalskeren er en bevægende og poetisk roman, som rummer et helt liv. Bogen er skrevet af Abbas Khider, der blev født i Bagdad i 1973. Som 19-årig blev han fængslet på grund af sine politiske aktiviteter. Efter sin løsladelse flygtede han fra Irak og opholdt sig efterfølgende i flere forskellige lande, inden han i år 2000 bosatte sig i Tyskland, hvor han har studeret litteratur og filosofi. Hans romaner har modtaget adskillige priser og opnået stor international anerkendelse. Med udgivelsen af Erindringsforfalskeren er det første gang, man kan læse Khider i dansk oversættelse.

Tale of Ahmed is a gripping fictional account of the dangerous journey of a teenage boy, Ahmed, who travels from Afghanistan, across the Middle East and Europe, to seek refuge in England.Author Henry Cockburn lives at one end of a long trail stretching from Afghanistan to the southeast coast of England. His home in Kent is close to where small, frail boats arrive bringing refugees on the last lap of their 6,000-mile journey from Kabul and the Hindu Kush. Meeting and talking with refugees, Henry became aware that even they themselves rarely understand the heroic nature of their odyssey. The journey's never-ending risks have become second nature to them. For most other people, they are simply unknown. Correcting such misperceptions is one of the objectives of this powerful story.Written in the form of an epic poem and richly illustrated by the author, Tale of Ahmed describes how its eponymous hero gets help from fellow travelers and finds unexpected friends along the way. But Ahmed is also exploited for money by crooks and cheats, as well as targeted as a pariah. This unusual and unputdownable fable recounts with great sensitivity the Afghans' sufferings and their courage and resilience in making a grueling passage.
