[This work] is challenging, thought provoking, and it is certainly
refreshing to find an analysis of refugeehood from the perspective
of political economy. While political economists have looked at
integration issues, actually taking the encampment as the heart of
the analysis is something new, and very useful. It has to be hoped
that the volume inspires more input from economists to the study of
forced migration, and it is certainly a valuable contribution in
itself.

This sustained and systematic analysis of encampments is a very
valuable contribution to the literature on refugee studies.
