Laura Robson reframes the history of international refugee policy, showing that security questions and labor needs have always been at its center. The story she tells is not only about the past but is vital for understanding responses to displacement today. -- ILANA FELDMAN, Professor of Anthropology, History, and International Affairs, George Washington University In this impassioned and important book, Laura Robson casts the modern system of international refugee relief - its origins, evolution, and current objectives - in a damning new light. A powerful, revelatory account of the strategies used by great powers to control and exploit refugees under the guise of humanitarian assistance. -- DANE KENNEDY, author of <i>The Imperial History Wars: Debating the British Empire</i>
