Deterritorialized Youth by Dawn Chatty

Deterritorialized Youth by Dawn Chatty

This study examines refugee communities closely linked with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) and a host of other UN agencies in the case of the Sahrawi and near total lack of humanitarian aid in the case of Afghan refugees in Iran.

".. a valuable, innovative contribution to the anthropological study of refugee youth, as it focuses on refugee populations on  hich relatively little research has been done so far... [and offers] a sound methodological approach and rich qualitative data."  ·  Cordula Strocka, Free University Berlin

"This is a well-written, interesting text that offers several contributions to knowledge. First, it provides insight into the experiences of two long-standing refugee populations in the Middle East - Sahrawi and Afghan - for which there is little empirical data. Second, most chapters of the book adopt an inter-generational perspective, providing differential views and experiences of young people, adults and elders."  ·  Christina Clark,  Saint Paul University
