Mana Neyestani est réfugié en France depuis 2011 après avoir dû s'enfuir d'Iran à cause d'un dessin, des événements qu'il a décrits dans son premier livre, Une Métamorphose Iranienne (çà et là/arte éditions, 2012). Dans Trois Heures, il raconte comment sa condition de réfugié lui pèse, condamné à ne pas pouvoir revenir dans son pays où il risque la prison à vie, tout en ne sentant pas encore chez lui en France. Cette condition lui a été cruellement rappelée en 2017, au moment où il s'apprêtait à s'envoler pour le Canada pour rendre visite à son frère. Bloqué à l'aéroport par la compagnie aérienne qui ne savait pas comment traiter son titre de voyage de réfugié, Mana Neyestani s'est heurté à un mur d'incompréhension. Trois Heures détaille cette longue attente durant laquelle il ne peut que constater son impuissance et le peu d'attention accordée aux personnes dans sa position. C'est aussi l'occasion pour cet homme timide qui n'ose jamais élever la voix ou défendre ses intérêts de se livrer à un exercice d'introspection.

It is not an easy road—but hope is the oxygen of my life. These insightful words of Meron Semedar, a refugee from Eritrea, reflect the feelings of the eleven men and women featured in this book. These refugees share their extraordinary experiences of fleeing oppression, violence and war in their home countries in search of a better life in the United States. Each chapter of Refugees in America focuses on an individual from a different country, from a 93-year-old Polish grandmother who came to the United States after surviving the horrors of Auschwitz to a young undocumented immigrant from El Salvador who became an American college graduate, despite being born impoverished and blind. Some have found it easy to reinvent themselves in the United States, while others have struggled to adjust to America, with its new culture, language, prejudices, and norms. Each of them speaks candidly about their experiences to author Lee T. Bycel, who provides illuminating background information on the refugee crises in their native countries. Their stories help reveal the real people at the center of political debates about US immigration. Giving a voice to refugees from such far-flung locations as South Sudan, Guatemala, Syria, and Vietnam, this book weaves together a rich tapestry of human resilience, suffering, and determination. Profits from the sale of this book will be donated to two organizations that are doing excellent refugee resettlement work and offer many opportunities to support refugees: HIAS (founded as the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society) hias.org International Rescue Committee (IRC) rescue.org

We live in an age of displacement. Refugee numbers are increasing due to a proliferation of fragile states, and this problem will be exacerbated by climate change and the impact of COVID-19. And yet, rising populist nationalism has undermined the political willingness of rich countries to accept migrants and asylum seekers. Given these contradictory trends, how can we create sustainable refugee policies that enable displaced people to live in safety and dignity, while operating at scale?0The Wealth of Refugees draws upon a decade of original qualitative and quantitative research to offer practical solutions. Focusing on refugees in camps and cities in Africa, it identifies approaches that can be effective in improving the welfare of refugees, increasing social cohesion between refugees and host communities, and reducing the need for onward migration. The book argues that the key lies in unlocking the potential contributions of refugees themselves. Refugees bring skills, talents, and aspirations and can be a benefit rather than a burden to receiving societies. Realizing this potential relies upon moving beyond a purely humanitarian focus to fully include refugees in host-country economies, build economic opportunities in refugee-hosting regions, and navigate the ambiguous politics of refugee protection.
