Almost 68.5 million refugees in the world today live in a protection gap, the chasm between protections stipulated in the Geneva Convention and the abrogation of those responsibilities by states and aid agencies. With dwindling humanitarian aid, how do refugee communities solve collective dilemmas, like raising funds for funeral services, or securing other critical goods and services? In Networked Refugees, Nadya Hajj finds that Palestinian refugees utilize Information Communication Technology platforms to motivate reciprocity-a cooperative action marked by the mutual exchange of favors and services-and informally seek aid and connection with their transnational diaspora community. Using surveys conducted with Palestinians throughout the diaspora, interviews with those inside the Nahr al Bared Refugee camp in Lebanon, and data pulled from online community spaces, these findings push back against the cynical idea that online organizing is fruitless, emphasizing instead the productivity of these digital networks. 410 $aCritical Refugee Studies 606 $aSocial Science / Refugees$2bisacsh 606 $aTechnology & Engineering / Social Aspects$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Regional Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial sciences 615 7$aSocial Science / Refugees 615 7$aTechnology & Engineering / Social Aspects 615 7$aSocial Science / Regional Studies 615 0$aSocial sciences 676 $a332/.04246089927405692 700 $aHajj$b Nadya$01047748 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910598067803321 996 $aNetworked Refugees$92576926 997 $aUNINA
