Governing the Displaced is a groundbreaking book that delves into the complex and multifaceted realm of refugee governance in the context of heightened global displacement. Authored by Ali Bhagat, the book employs a dual case study approach to examine three critical dimensions of refugee survival: shelter, work, and political belonging. Through this comprehensive analysis, Bhagat offers a profound understanding of the global refugee regime, which operates along contradictory fault lines of passive humanitarianism, violent exclusion, and organized abandonment in the European Union and East Africa.
One of the key insights of the book is its recognition of the interconnected and overlapping features of refugee governance and survival in seemingly disparate places. By drawing on theories of racial capitalism, labor politics, and everyday forms of exclusion, Bhagat sheds light on the ways in which these factors shape the experiences of refugees in both Paris and Nairobi. The book is a timely and necessary contribution to the field of migration studies and to political economy, as it provides a critical analysis of the challenges and opportunities faced by refugees in the contemporary world.
In conclusion, Governing the Displaced is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of refugee governance and survival in the global context. Through its insightful analysis and interdisciplinary approach, the book offers valuable insights into the ways in which race, class, and power intersect to shape the lives of refugees and the broader political landscape.
