This groundbreaking study of Somalis in a Kenyan refugee camp reveals the inadequacy of such assumptions by describing the rich personal and social histories that refugees bring with them to the camps. The author focuses on the ways in which Somalis are able to adapt their 'nomadic' heritage in order to cope with camp life; a heritage that includes a high degree of mobility and strong social networks that reach beyond the confines of the camp as far as the U.S. and Europe.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 345gAuthor: Cindy HorstGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesBook Series: Forced MigrationRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
