Displaced Women
The essays included in this volume mostly originate from the conference organised by the editors at Glasgow Women’s Library in March 2012. Language, multilingual narratives and interaction between cultures and languages were key themes of the conference. Interdisciplinary and international, the conference, like this edited volume, brought together specialists working in a range of fields and provided an opportunity for exchanges between historians, sociologists, scientists and literary scholars, as well as between theoreticians and practitioners, academics and non-academics. In spite of these many different approaches, all the papers presented here transcend the idea of ‘national identit...
Climate Change, Disasters and the Refugee Convention
Revealing the role of discrimination in disasters challenges received wisdom about who is a refugee.
Reaching a State of Hope
Shedding new light on the issues concerning refugees and immigration in 20th-century Sweden, this analysis examines the implications of its immigration policies. On what grounds were refugees admitted? Where did they come from? How did the Swedish state aid its new citizens?

A group of established Swedish and international historians answer these questions against the background of the eras passed: the Second World War, the Cold War, and the labor movement that shaped the national characteristic of Sweden so deeply. Reaching a State of Hope contributes to the wider field of research on political and administrative practices around refugees historically and places the Swedish refugee and immigration experience in a European perspective.

Spår
En kall vinterkväll 2001, bara nÃ¥gra dagar före jul, förs tvÃ¥ män ut till ett väntande flygplan pÃ¥ Bromma flygplats. De har blivit upplockade av poliser pÃ¥ väg hem till sina familjer, och har nu fÃ¥tt sina kläder uppskurna av maskerade män i rÃ¥narluvor och leds barfota ut till planet försedda i handbojor, fotbojor, och huvor. Dagen efter torteras av Mubarakregimens säkerhetstjänst i Egypten. Tre Ã¥r senare börjar tre journalister nysta i spÃ¥ren efter de tvÃ¥ egyptierna, och det mystiska flygplan med beteckningen N379P som inte bara landat pÃ¥ Bromma flygplats, utan som ocksÃ¥ dyker upp pÃ¥ en rad platser runt om i världen där människor samtidigt verkar försvinna spÃ¥rlÃ...
