Transnationalism and the politics of sending states
This is a provocative and courageous book. Provocative, because it dares to identify the "historical origins" of the national policies of "sending states". Courageous, because it dares to compare h
Genealogies across the cold war divide
This paper focuses on two historical moments in time and geographical locations, significantly situated at the beginning and the end of the Cold War of the Pontic Greeks' recent past. The significance of these moments relates to the two encounters between the two formerly isolated groups of Pontic Greeks, separated by the Cold War divide: one in the East (FSU) and the other in the West (Greek nation state). It addresses the continuous reconceptua…
When Greeks Meet Other Greeks
Ideology, history, and politics in service of repatriation
This article discusses the post-Cold War repatriation to the Black Sea of people deported to Central Asia after World War II, Crimean Tatars and Pontic Greeks. It reflects on their novel ethnic and religious identifications, not available to them before their exile. Religious labeling is now used by officials as a criterion for allocating people to places, and by people as expressions of loyalty and belonging. Politically, such labeling is used f…
Refugee Research Methodologies
It may seem paradoxical that a Special Issue on Refugee Research Methodologies is being published at a time when the very category ‘refugee’ is sidelined in favour of other publicized terms such as asylum seeker, irregular migrant or undocumented migrant, or is subsumed under emerging academic taxonomies such as the asylum–migration nexus (Castles and Loughna 2005). Conceptual clarification is a prerequisite for any methodological approach adopte…
In Search of 'Invisible' Actors
The paper traces the early history of refugee research and shows how, from originally being prime movers in the research, refugees today have largely been reduced to invisibility. In the South, access to refugees held in camps is controlled by local government bureaucracies and by lead agencies, and may be severely restricted or completely denied; in the North, refugees held in detention centres are equally difficult to access and even more disem…
Ethnic Greeks from the Former Soviet Union as “Privileged Return Migrants”
Depuis 1989, la migration de retour des personnes d’origine grecque de l’ancienne Union Soviétique marque la vie sociale de la Grèce contemporaine. Les récentes évaluations statistiques d’État suggèrent qu’environ 160 000 ex-citoyens soviétiques d’origines grecques auraient acquis le statut du ‘rapatrié’ et seraient engagés dans la phase finale du processus de naturalisation. Cet article s’attache à l’analyse de l’impact de ce phénomène particuli…
Counting the Refugees
This paper examines the justifications, operational methods and results of the requirement to enumerate refugee populations prior to supplying food aid. The authors argue (1) that this practices in refugee assistance, forming part of ‘an ideology of control’ within aid programmes, and (3) that it fails to provide the ‘accountability’ sought by donors. In addition, the paper questions the usual notion of ‘fairness’ in the distribution of welfare g…
