This point assumes a scenario where the host becomes a "hostage" to the love returned by the guest, which precludes any possibility of "possessing" the guest (Isayev and there by throwing the guest into a domain of permanent exile (Doukhan, 2014). The Eurocentric bias of the regime international protection, mediated by the Global North, "classifies, discriminates and distinguishes" refugees among "Western 'others'" (Juss, 2013: 318). Permanent and permanent repatriation of a refugee depends on "changes in circumstances in the country of origin" and their "ties with home/homeland" (Chowdhory, 2018:36).

Experience in a South Asian Context

Simon Behrman *

One of the primary justifications for international refugee law is to facilitate the entry of refugees into states of asylum. However, the question remains whether something like the national model law and/or accession to international refugee law agreements would compromise or improve the asylum offer in the region. These are some of the questions I explore further below in assessing the history and present of asylum policies and practices in South Asia.

The Supreme Court clarified that many of the Chakmas were actually entitled to Indian citizenship. The campaign of the Chakmas together with the human rights sector could be seen as such an example. 11 For an illuminating history of the Rohingya from the colonial period to the present, see Jacques P.

Return, Citizenship and Justice in the Eyes of Rohingya Refugee Women

Meghna Guhathakurta *

The next influx came in the eighties in the wake of the new citizenship laws passed by Myanmar in 1982, which during implementation stripped the Rohingya of their citizenship (Walton 2017). However, the recent influx as a result of the "clearance operations" as termed by the Myanmar government has created a watershed in previous government policies. The thought of staying in the camps in Bangladesh was deeply disturbing, with many stressing the temporary nature of the situation and questioning the harsh conditions.

This law was condemned by the Rohingyas for denying them citizenship and turning them into "resident aliens" or "Bengalis", as they were not included in any of the three categories mentioned in the law. Today, there seems to be almost universal agreement within the Rohingya refugee community that they will not return to Myanmar without full citizenship and acceptance of the term Rohingya. The NVC is supposed to be a "document for foreigners"; the women stated that the Rohingya who were issued NVCs in northern Rakhine still cannot move freely, cannot own land and cannot register cattle in their own names.

Instead, we have insecurity all around us" The women all agreed that they should have "the same rights as everyone else in Myanmar", but two rights were emphasized more than others: the right to practice religion freely and the right to own property your house and property. Being Muslim is an important source of identity for Rohingya women, and they are proud of the Islamic faith. For example, many women spoke of the importance of being allowed to go to the mosque to pray, which reflects a broader desire for freedom of movement.

Their mobility restrictions were the basis for all other forms of discrimination and persecution and the ideology behind the deportation of the Rohingya to Bangladesh. No refugee may move north of this border without authorization as directed by the Government.

Populism in the Contemporary World

In addition, the "end of de facto existing socialism" and the collapse of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia led to a sharp increase in migration. We begin here with a brief account of the changes in global political economy since the early 1970s and the erosion of the Keynesian welfare state. The end of the Cold War also led to greater intervention by NATO forces in the Mediterranean and the Middle East, destabilizing the region and causing a flood of refugees.

While much of the analysis presented here is applicable to a wide range of countries, space limitations force me to limit the discussion primarily to the United States and the United Kingdom. This is one of the main reasons why people in the rich world often complain about outsourcing... The people who are excluded from benefits are workers in rich countries. The bipartisan consensus was seen again in the bailout of the big bankers in the United States and the United Kingdom during the 2008 financial crisis, while letting the high street fail.42.

The attacks on the Pentagon and the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York by al-Qaeda in 2001 not only led to the American Bush and were ratified by the Clinton administration with the support of Republican members of the US. The rise of the UK Independence Party and growing support for Brexit drove a wedge between the Conservative Party and its corporate constituency, marginalizing the more moderate One Nation Conservatives in favor of the Brexiteers.

In short, the demotion of industrial production in the hierarchy of wealth and the end of "actually existing socialism" uprooted the foundations of the political arrangements that had developed since the Industrial Revolution. The growing weakness of the industrial working class has weakened the trade unions and social democratic parties. 8Branko Milanovic, Capitalism Alone: ​​The Future of the System That Rules the World (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2019), pp.

It's always a battle between the normality of established society and the indirect, unsettling memories of sleaze. Don't worry about it." Similar migrants, similar lives, similar world of reality and hallucination - this is the brightness of the migrant universe. These three accounts teach us about the laws of visibility and invisibility related to our knowledge of the stationary and the transient.

Sebald does this by orchestrating a multitude of voices to produce a coherent discourse of the immigrant. He is able to tell us about immigrants without portraying any kind of underlying subjectivity that we might associate with immigrants. In the escapes of the Iranian and the Ethiopian, however, invisibility is not achieved in that way.

Here, far removed from the literary tropes, the migrant becomes one of the countless cogs in the wheels of global commodity chains and supply networks, where the migrant must renounce any identity. But since objectification and commodification are the law of bourgeois life, the museum will be the home of the refugees and migrants. Migrant memory is thus much like a fragmented geography of the world and the mind.

But it is not memory of a particular individual, but of the road, the journey, the passage. This turning away of the gaze from oneself to others must be carried out as the possibility of a necessary knowledge of migration, flight, and the path that the migrant will take. Still, it doesn't tell us anything deep, it's a cliché, because the migrant as protagonist and a narrator has to act and at the same time has to constantly confront the truth of migrant life.
