FMR: Urban Displacement

Forced Migration Review's latest issue focuses on "urban displacement," with "26 articles by a wide range of authors – practitioners, policymakers and researchers." It also includes a spotlight on Haiti and 12 general articles on a range of topics, including the new "Kampala Convention" (the AU convention on internal displacement), shade netting, IDPs in Pakistan and Timor-Leste, Iraqi refugees, and the voluntary repatriation of Mauritanian refugees.

The editors' overview of the issue also provides an interesting explanation of how the cover image was created.
