{"product_id":"the-dispersal-and-social-exclusion-patricia-hynes-9781847423269","title":"The Dispersal and Social Exclusion of Asylum Seekers: Between Liminality and Belonging","description":"This book establishes asylum seekers as a socially excluded group, investigating the policy of dispersing asylum seekers across the UK and providing an overview of historic and contemporary dispersal systems. It is the first book to seek to understand how asylum seekers experience the dispersal system and the impact this has on their lives. The author argues that deterrent asylum policies increase the sense of liminality experienced by individuals, challenges assumptions that asylum seekers should be socially excluded until receipt of refugee status and illustrates how they create their own sense of 'belonging' in the absence of official recognition. Academics, students, policy-makers and practitioners would all benefit from reading this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia Hynes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1847423264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847423269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/09\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.70w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2011 pg. 107","brand":"Patricia Hynes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088889032959,"sku":"9781847423269","price":127.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eda33112-6fa5-4789-8b4e-8fde5003632b.jpg?v=1769107103","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-dispersal-and-social-exclusion-patricia-hynes-9781847423269","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
