Global refugee numbers are at their highest levels since the end of World War II, but the system in place to deal with them, based upon a humanitarian list of imagined "basic needs," has changed little. In Refuge, Paul Collier and Alexander Betts argue that the system fails to provide a comprehensive solution to the fundamental problem, which is how to reintegrate displaced people into society. Western countries deliver food, clothing, and shelter to refugee camps, but these sites, usually located in remote border locations, can make things worse. The numbers are stark: the average length of stay in a refugee camp worldwide is 17 years. Into this situation comes the Syria crisis, which has dislocated countless families, bringing them to face an impossible choice: huddle in dangerous urban desolation, rot in dilapidated camps, or flee across the Mediterranean to increasingly unwelcoming governments. Refuge seeks to restore moral purpose and clarity to refugee policy. Rather than assuming indefinite dependency, Collier-author of The Bottom Billion-and his Oxford colleague Betts propose a humanitarian approach integrated with a new economic agenda that begins with jobs, restores autonomy, and rebuilds people's ability to help themselves and their societies. Timely and urgent, the book goes beyond decrying scenes of desperation to declare what so many people, policymakers and public alike, are anxious to hear: that a long-term solution really is within reach.Binding Type: Paperback

Itsy bitsy teeny weenie.
Size: Large, Color: White Stripe
Teeny tiny. I ordered a large, as I wear a size 10-12 and larges are usually perfect or even a little big on me. This could be described a a child’s size large. I could technically fit into it, but it qas skin tight and stretched out all over. “Slim fit” indeed. Even the sleeves are too tight and very short. If you order, go at least two sizes bigger than you usually wear.

Poor quality
Size: Large, Color: White Stripe
See through, thin, and rough feeling. Not anything like the material the Amazon brand t-shirts are made of.
