Descrição do Produto
Refugee Literature and the Politics of Displacement: Beyond Borders develops a sustained interdisciplinary dialogue between contemporary refugee literature, human rights discourse, immigration policy, and international refugee law. Bringing together refugee-authored texts from the UK, Europe, the United States, Canada, and Australia, this study examines how literary form resists, negotiates, and reconfigures the epistemic demands of asylum governance. Through close readings of literary texts alongside humanitarian reports, legal instruments, and policy frameworks, the book reveals the epistemic, ethical, and affective limits of asylum regimes, situating refugee writings as a crucial site of epistemic critique. It introduces the innovative theoretical framework of critical pliability, alongside the concepts of triadic displacement and affective registration, to account for formal strategies through which refugee authors articulate experiences that exceed juridical legibility. By equipping scholars and students with theoretical tools for analyzing displacement as an ongoing affective, political, and epistemic condition, this book offers new insights into mobility, displacement, and narrative justice in the twenty-first century, establishing refugee literature as an essential field for understanding contemporary global migration and its literary representations.
