In this unique 'history from below', 'Destination Elsewhere' chronicles encounters between displaced persons in Europe and the Allied agencies who were tasked with caring for them after the Second World War. The struggle to define who was a displaced person and who was not was a subject of intense debate and deliberation among humanitarians, international law experts, immigration planners and governments. What has not adequately been recognised is that displaced persons also actively participated in this emerging refugee conversation. Displaced persons endured war, displacement and resettlement, but these experiences were not defined by passivity and speechlessness. Instead, they spoke back, creating a dialogue that in turn helped shape the modern idea of the refugee.
