• Chapter 1 IntroductionChapter 2 Encampments in a Two-Tier WorldChapter 3 The Microeconomy of EncampmentsChapter 4 Encampments in the Domestic Pecking OrderChapter 5 Encampments in the International Economy: The Effect of GlobalizationChapter 6 The Persistence of Nationalism and ConflictChapter 7 Conclusion

[This work] is challenging, thought provoking, and it is certainly refreshing to find an analysis of refugeehood from the perspective of political economy. While political economists have looked at integration issues, actually taking the encampment as the heart of the analysis is something new, and very useful. It has to be hoped that the volume inspires more input from economists to the study of forced migration, and it is certainly a valuable contribution in itself.
