Free Download Hyun-Gwi Park, "The Displacement of Borders among Russian Koreans in Northeast Asia "
English | ISBN: 9089649980 | 2017 | 248 pages | PDF | 1447 KB
Since the nineteenth century, ethnic Koreans have represented a small yet significant portion of the population of the Russian Far East, but until now, the phenomenon has been largely understudied. Based on extensive historical and ethnographic research, this is the first book in English to chart the contemporary social life of Koreans in the complex borderland region. Dispelling the commonly held notion that Koreans were completely removed from the region during the country’s attempt to ‘cleanse’ its borders in 1937, Hyun Gwi Park reveals timely new insights into the historical and current experiences of Koreans living along the Eurasian frontier.

Free Download Florence Padovani, "Development-Induced Displacement in India and China: A Comparative Look at the Burdens of Growth"
English | ISBN: 1498529038 | 2016 | 280 pages | EPUB | 7 MB
The world seems to have recently discovered India and China as major players in Asia, and political and economic connections between the two countries are rapidly growing. Beyond the fashionable phenomenon, the two countries have much in common and many shared experiences. Both are developing countries with dynamic economies focused on lifting their people out of poverty. There are also differences as well, as India is a democracy while China is an autocratic state, and the speed of economic growth is much higher in India. This collection provides a comparative analysis of development-induced migration in India and China caused by urbanization and dam construction. The contributors include scholars from both countries working in both academia and consultancy positions.

Free Download Natalia Cintra, "Displacement, Human Rights and Sexual and Reproductive Health: Conceptualizing Gender Protection Gaps in Latin America"
English | ISBN: 1529222796 | 2023 | 214 pages | PDF | 10 MB
Focusing on the flight of women and girls from Venezuela, this book examines the gendered nature of forced displacement and the ways in which the failures of protection regimes to be sensitive to displacement’s gendered character affect women and girls, and their sexual and reproductive health. Highlighting how categorical legal distinctions between ‘refugees’ and ‘migrants’ fail to capture the dynamics of forced migration in Latin America, it investigates how the operation of this categorical divide generates responsibility and protection gaps in relation to female forced migrants which act as determinants of sexual and reproductive health. Drawing on the voices of displaced women, it argues that a robust political ethics of protection of the forcibly displaced must encompass all necessary fleers and be responsive to the gendered character of forced displacement and particularly to effective access to sexual and reproductive health rights.

Free Download Tom Angotti, Sylvia Morse, Philip DePaolo, "Zoned Out! Race, Displacement and City Planning in New York City"
English | 2016 | pages: 165 | ISBN: 0996004130 | PDF | 8,4 mb
New York City does zoning without planning. Its zoning changes are displacing low-income communities of color while protecting segregated neighborhoods. Its "affordable housing" is not truly affordable. Case studies of Willliamsburg, Harlem and Chinatown show how race matters but is not acknowledged in land use and housing policies. Zoned Out! proposes ways to address inequalities, promote authentic community-based planning, and housing in the public domain.

Free Download Displacement and Exile: The State-Refugee Relations in India By Abhijit Dasgupta
2016 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0199461171 | PDF | 2 MB
This study highlights some emerging issues in the study of displaced persons in India, like the agency and voices of people who flee across an international border, the identities they forge for themselves, their relations with the hosts and their interactions with the state and non-governmental organizations. Three case studies are examined here: (a). aPartition refugeesa, from East Pakistan to West Bengal, (b). Tamil refugees, from Sri Lanka to India and (c). Bangladesh Liberation War refugees from East Pakistan to West Bengal. The reader will find that each case is in itself highly complex. The treatment meted out to the displaced people in India has not been consistent. This study shows that the responses of the state to cross-border displacement have been varied over time and space. The Indian state has sovereign rights to decide who is to be considered as a refugee, who should receive relief and rehabilitation and who is to be repatriated. In the absence of national laws for the refugees in India, the state is the final arbitrator on all such matters.
