Ato Kwamena Onoma argues that such outbreaks only happen when states instigate them because of links between a few refugees and opposition groups. Locals embrace these attacks when refugees are settled in areas that privilege residence over indigeneity in the distribution of rights, ensuring that they live autonomously of local elites. The resulting opacity of their lives leads locals to buy into their demonization by the state. Locals do not buy into state denunciation of refugees in areas that privilege indigeneity over residence in the distribution of rights because refugees in such areas are subjugated to locals who come to know them very well. Onoma reorients the study of refugees back to a focus on the disempowered civilian refugees that constitute the majority of refugees even in cases of severe refugee militarization. 517 3 $aAnti-Refugee Violence & African Politics 606 $aRefugees$xViolence against 606 $aRefugees$xPublic opinion 606 $aRefugees$xGovernment policy 606 $aRefugees$zGuinea 606 $aRefugees$zUganda 606 $aRefugees$zCongo (Democratic Republic) 607 $aGuinea$xPolitics and government$y1984- 607 $aUganda$xPolitics and government$y20th century 607 $aCongo (Democratic Republic)$xPolitics and government$y20th century 615 0$aRefugees$xViolence against. 615 0$aRefugees$xPublic opinion. 615 0$aRefugees$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aRefugees 615 0$aRefugees 615 0$aRefugees 676 $a325.21096652 700 $aOnoma$b Ato Kwamena$f1975-$01642821 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809873203321 996 $aAnti-refugee violence and African politics$93987717 997 $aUNINA
