War and political, ethnic, racial, and religious strife continually force people to migrate against their will. These forced migrants create a stream of new challenges for relief workers and policy makers. A better understanding of the characteristics of refugee populations and of the population dynamics of these situations is vital. Improved research and insights can enhance disaster management, refugee camp administration, and repatriation or resettlement programs. Forced Migration and Mortality examines mortality patterns in complex human- itarian emergencies, reviewing the state of knowledge, as well as how patterns may change in the new century. It contains four case studies of mortality in recent emergencies: Rwanda, North Korea, Kosovo, and Cambodia. Because refugees and internally displaced persons are likely to continue to be a significant humanitarian concern for many years, research in this field is critical. This is the first book to comprehensively explore forced migration and mortality and it provides useful material for researchers, policy makers, and relief workers. 517 3 $aForced migration and mortality 606 $aRefugees$xMortality$vCongresses 606 $aForced migration$vCongresses 615 0$aRefugees$xMortality 615 0$aForced migration 676 $a304.6/4 701 $aReed$b Holly$01806453 701 $aKeely$b Charles B$01806839 712 02$aRoundtable on the Demography of Forced Migration. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Population. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommission on Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960998003321 996 $aForced migration & mortality$94356233 997 $aUNINA
