Description

Explaining the influence of religious groups on the development of refugee policy in the United States and Canada. The United States and Canada have historically accepted approximately three-quarters of resettled refugees, leading the world in this key aspect of global refugee protection. Send Them Here draws on a rich archival record and extensive comparative research to contribute new insights to the history of refugee policy, human rights, and the roles played by religion in modern policymaking and global humanitarian efforts.
