Remembering Refugees Then and Now

Refugee crises are one of the gravest problems facing the modern world. This book explores the paradox of why countries such as Britain pride themselves on their past treatment of refugees yet are suspicious and hostile towards asylum seekers trying to gain entry. It explores the contemporary treatment and representation of refugees ranging from the Huguenots in the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries through to the many groups that have gained entry more recently.Kushner, Tony is the author of 'Remembering Refugees Then and Now', published 2007 under ISBN 9780719068836 and ISBN 0719068835.
