This book explores the role of "home" in the lives of displaced people, including voluntary and forced migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, and temporary workers.

For displaced people, home is something lost, longed for, and sometimes found anew. It is a community of people in an environment of relationships and a physical dwelling that provide a sense of safety, security, hope, and belonging. Much of the efforts of refugees, migrants and exiles are devoted to rebuilding a home, through a combination of personal effort and collaboration with the political and social environment of the host community. Aguirre and Argandona bring together an interdisciplinary collection of contributors to analyse these challenges through the lenses of economics, law, sociology, psychology, communications, management and political science. The book offers numerous suggestions for assistance aimed not only at the short-term problems of displaced people, but also at ensuring their human dignity.

This volume will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of the sociology of migration and of public policy related to the handling of migrants.
