World Refugee Day: Free articles from Berghahn Journals

The United Nations recognizes World Refugee Day annually on June 20 to raise awareness of and show support for the millions of refugees who have been forced to flee their homes each year. This year, the UN Refugee Agency will also launch its #WithRefugees petition to send a message to governments that they must work together to ensure the rights and safety of refugees.

To support the efforts of World Refugee Day, Berghahn Journals is offering relevant articles, including one from Focaal with hope that this will contribute to the overall discussion of the lives of refugees.

The exhibit was officially opened on June 20 in light of World Refugee Day, and focuses on refugees and the few belongings they take with them when they leave. The artist is known for her welded iron sculptures combined with treated photographs and charcoal sketches. The exhibit will remain on display until June 30, 2017. U.S. Mission Photo/Eric Bridiers

Migration and Society
— Coming in 2018!

jnl_cover_air-ms

Migration and Society is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal advancing debate about emergent trends in all types of migration. We invite work that situates migration in a wider historical and societal context, including attention to experiences and representations of migration, critical theoretical perspectives on migration, and the social, cultural, and legal embeddedness of migration. Global in its scope, we particularly encourage scholarship from and about the global South as well as the North.
