En savoir plus sur le livre

This book offers an empirical analysis of refugee situations during the Cold War, emphasizing the need to prevent scenarios where refugees are exploited in political conflicts. It advocates for measures to avert refugee crises while still allowing persecuted individuals to seek protection. The revised second edition highlights the implementation of prevention strategies, including mediation, early warning, and information-sharing. Since the first edition, the international political landscape has shifted significantly, placing prevention at the forefront of the United Nations and individual states' agendas. Advances in human rights, humanitarian assistance, peacekeeping, and peacemaking present both new opportunities and challenges for prevention. The international community is urged to act decisively while global cooperation remains viable, aiming to institutionalize innovative prevention and intervention strategies that can save lives and avert future human rights abuses and forced displacements. Although the Cold War has ended, conflicts—both internal and cross-border—persist, underscoring the ongoing relevance of these issues.
