This course has three scopes:
(1) We look at causes and contexts in exploring waves of refugees created by wars, by the rise of authoritarian regimes and exclusionary policies, as well as by various political changes at the time of decolonization and after the collapse of communist regimes.
(2) We look back at the changes and continuities in refugee policy and ways local, national, and international actors addressed and attempted to resolve various crises of displacement. What is a “refugee?” Are refugees distinct from other migrants? And who decides who gains “refugee” status and who does not?
(3) We delve in refugees’ experience of flight and how they shaped and negotiated the management of their displacement.At the end of the course, students should be able to:
1.Become familiar with debates in the fields of history of refugees and forced displacement.
2.Critically analyze historical roots and attempted resolutions of various waves of forced displacement.
3.Develop the capacity to critically engage with the literature and interpret past and contemporary sources (visual, textual, oral, data) relating to the topic of the course.
4.Engage in contemporary debates on forced displacement and humanitarian responses, drawing on insights from historical experiences
