Refuge: Rethinking Refugee Policy in a Changing World

By Alexander Betts, Paul Collier

Categories: Politics & Social Sciences

Refuge (2017) by Alexander Betts and Paul Collier argues that the global refugee system, built after World War II, is failing. Written after the Syrian crisis, it says most refugees live for years in camps or cities in neighboring countries. The authors propose giving refugees the right to work and bringing jobs and investment to the countries that host them, with richer nations sharing the cost.
