Embodied Violence and Agency in Refugee Regimes: Anthropological Perspectives
Multiple refugee regimes govern the lives of forced migrants simultaneously but in an often conflicting way.

May I be a sacrifice for my grandchildren—transgenerational transmission and women’s narratives of the Yezidi ferman

It is nearly impossible to know the number of the victims; about 12,000 Yezidis managed to find refuge in Armenia, where they established a diasporic c…

The article discusses and assesses the theoretical and conceptual approaches to diaspora research presented in this special section.
