Forced Migration Review, no. 70 (Sept. 2022)
- Themed issue on "Knowledge, Voice and Power": Over recent years, debates about race, representation and inequality have brought questions of power and voice to people who had not previously engaged with issues of marginalisation and exclusion, and at the same time have given momentum to others who were already active in challenging the status quo. Localisation agendas within the aid sector, social movements such as Black Lives Matter and wider debates about decolonisation have generated reflection on the inequalities that exist within the field of forced migration, in research and knowledge, policy and practice. In this edition of Forced Migration Review, the authors reflect on progress made but also on the road still to travel. They challenge attitudes, highlight injustices and make practical recommendations for change."
