The refugee crisis is one of the most pressing of twenty-first century global issues--and how we help refugees is one of the most-debated topics of our time.

This book explores that issue and invites readers to join the debate. It defines what a refugee is, discusses moral and ethical issues around how we deal with refugees, and puts forward solutions for how we can better manage the crisis of displaced people. The book sets out debates about important refugee issues and asks readers to consider the information and draw their own conclusions. The concepts of citizenship, local and global government, fairly using Earth's resources, and the value of communities and community are also explored.
