Description

Resisting the Dehumanization of Refugees covers immigrant experiences to and from a variety of countries and cultures, experienced by the young, the old, families, and individuals. It seeks to examine both the dehumanizing discourses, policies, and structural forces affecting refugees, as well as the ways in which refugees and their supporters challenge these forces. The essay authors come from various sectors— academics, practitioners, and those with personal experience moving from place to place. Educators can choose from these essays to support learning objectives such as exploring ideologies related to class or nation-states, as well as showing how government policies relating to immigration affect the lives of individuals. These essays could be read with liberalist philosophy in mind, using current events to enhance understanding of political and moral philosophy, and vice versa.
