A leading expert offers the definitive account of Syria's long history of welcoming, and now exporting, refugees.

Palestinian children and young people living both within and outside of refugee camps in the Middle East are the focus of this book. For more than half a century these children and their caregivers have lived a temporary existence in the dramatic and politically volatile landscape that is the Middle East. These children have been captive to various sorts of stereotyping, both academic and popular. They have been objectified, much as their parents and grandparents, as passive victims without the benefit of international protection. And they have become the beneficiaries of numerous humanitarian aid packages which presume the primacy of the Western model of child development as well as the psycho-social approach to intervention. Giving voice to individual children, in the context of their households and their community, this book aims to move beyond the stereotypes and Western-based models to explore the impact that forced migration and prolonged conflict have had, and continue to have, on the lives of these refugee children.
In this book--the result of years of researching the Harasiis, a tribe living in the Sultanate of Oman--Chatty examines how development efforts affected tribe members on a personal level, from pastoralism to full-time employment, formal education, and the changing role of women in this new environment.
