Builds an ethical framework for responding to the urgent crisis of global displacement
Widening the discussion of the ethics of forced displacement to include people displaced by development projects, in particular Indigenous peoples
A critical examination of border practices by global North states, including their use of violence and their defiance of international law
Radical proposals for how we should understand key ideas such as protection, borders and solidarity both at a practical and theoretical level
Case studies include bordering practices by European Union states, the United States and its border with Mexico, recent developments in the United Kingdom regarding refugees and people displaced by development projects
In this book Phillip Cole calls for a radical review of what international protection looks like and who is entitled to it. The book brings together different issues of forced displacement in one place to provide a systematic overview. It draws attention to groups who are often overlooked when it comes to discussions of international protection, such as the internally displaced, those displaced by climate change, disasters, development infrastructure projects and extreme poverty. The study draws on extensive case studies, such as border practices by European Union states, the United States and its border with Mexico, and the United Kingdom. Cole places the experiences of displaced people at the centre, and argues that they should be key political agents in determining policy in this area.
