Book excerpt: There are more than 50,000 Iraqis in Jordan, representing all walks of life and diverse religious and ethnic backgrounds. Whether fleeing generalized violence or targeted persecution, the vast majority of Iraqis in Jordan are refugees fleeing for their lives. Based on in-depth, personal interviews with Iraqis living in Jordan, the report describes how the Jordanian government turns a blind eye to people who would quality as refugees, refusing to grant them asylum or to agree to abide by a call from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees to provide them temporary protection. Consequently, many are denied any legal status and are forced to live illegally.

Book excerpt: "AbstractIn the decade following the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, thousands of Iraqis made their way to neighbouring Jordan, where many spent years living. Unlike other major refugee groups in the region, such as Palestinians or, more recently, Syrians, Iraqis in Jordan during this period were overwhelmingly educated, middle-class professionals. They self-settled throughout Amman and were generally financially better off than many of their Jordanian hosts. While most eventually registered with the UN in the hopes of being resettlement outside of the Middle East, many did so several years after being in Jordan. Based on 18 months of fieldwork with Iraqis in Amman between 2010 and 2013, this dissertation is an examination of the dynamics of Iraqi mobility into and out of Jordan following the US-led invasion. Specifically, it explores how concepts and experiences of home were being reimagined and reconfigured among Iraqis. As Iraqis spoke to me of their departures from Iraq and as I shared their lives in Jordan, it became clear that they experienced their ‘displacement’ less as an ‘event’ that had occurred to them than as an ambiguous and open-ended process that extended over time and across places. They sought to construct a sense of home that was fundamentally affective—what they termed “a sense of comfort” in the world. As Iraqis moved across the destabilised terrains of Iraq, Jordan, and beyond, how was their sense of comfort—of being at home in the world—alternately cultivated and undermined? Drawing on Heidegger’s notion of “equipment,” I argue that Iraqi experiences of displacement and of home should neither be understood as binary (home / not home) nor as dominated solely by legal or financial concerns. Iraqis assessed the comfort, and thus liveability, of various places in ways that were multi-layered, contradictory, and shifting. In illustrating this, I contend that Iraqi patterns of mobility and emplacement were intimately tied not only to the specific configurations of laws, people, and opportunities available to them in various places, but also—and especially—to the amount of labour that was required to sustain a sense of comfort"--

Book excerpt: Using the example of Iraqi refugees in Jordan's capital of Amman, this book describes how information and communication technologies (ICTs) play out in the everyday experiences of urban refugees, geographically located in the Global South, and shows how interactions between online and offline spaces are key for making sense of the humanitarian regime, for carving out a sense of home and for sustaining hope. This book paints a humanizing account of making do amid legal marginalization, prolonged insecurity, and the proliferation of digital technologies.

Download or read book The Iraqi Refugees written by Joseph Sassoon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-11-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years since the US-led invasion of Iraq, over 4 million Iraqis have been forced to flee their homes, in what amounts to one of the largest people movements in modern times, far exceeding the Palestinian outflow after 1948. Despite media reports of an improved security situation in Iraq, the majority of refugees are still not prepared to return. The social, economic, political and security consequences of the Iraq refugee crisis are huge. In this rigorous and timely book, Joseph Sassoon explores the underlying trends of Iraq's refugee flow: which class, ethnic and sectarian groups have gone - and are continuing to go - where and how. Based on extensive original research, he examines the economic impact of this exodus on Iraq itself, and on the host countries of the region: Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. He analyses international policy on the refugee issue, and assesses the options for return and resettlement. The Iraqi Refugees is both the first and the definitive guide to what will come to be seen as one of the most significant issues affecting the entire Middle East.

Book Synopsis Unwelcome Guests by : Andrea Elganzoury

Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on women who have been displaced from Iraq, and have sought refuge in Jordan, as a result of U.S. interference in their country. During my fieldwork in Amman, Jordan, I worked alongside Iraqi women in a nongovernmental school for refugees of various origins. The relationships that I formed there showed me how Iraqi refugee women ('refugee' only in the eyes of the UN, labeled as simply status-less 'guests' by the government of Jordan) managed to not only carry on, but also progress in the face of extreme marginalization. The dissertation project shows how these women exercised agency and maintained resilience in this protracted and stifling situation. Through a mixed methods approach, relying heavily on Critical Discourse Analysis, Oral History, Forced Migration, and Feminist methodology, I analyze a selection of women's life-stories to address the following questions: 1) How do urban, female, Iraqi refugees exercise agency, and remain resilient in the face of stifling political and social confines? 2) How does the label of 'guest' function to the detriment of Iraqi refugees in Jordan? 3) How do urban, female, Iraqi refugees settle in Jordan without legal status? The dissertation foregrounds women's ingenuity, despite being part of an urban, marginalized, 'guest' population in Jordan. In the face of uncertainty, discrimination and adversity, they adapt to the frustration of their displacement. They struggle against multiple layers of constraints, and limitations. Yet, they "....carve out a space under adverse conditions not simply by reacting to unfavourable state policies and practices but also through creative engagement and mobilization of social networks in search of viable livelihoods...against all odds" (Fabos and Kibreab 2007: 3).

Download or read book Iraqi Refugees in the United States written by Ken R. Crane and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Iraqi refugees navigate life, belonging, and exclusion in America The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 caused the largest forced migration in the Middle East since 1948, with millions of people fleeing to Syria, Jordan, Turkey, Iran, European Union, Australia and the United States. In Iraqi Refugees in the United States, Ken R. Crane explores the uphill climb faced by Iraqi refugees who have sought belonging in a country engaged in an ongoing War on Terror. Drawing on numerous interviews and fieldwork, Crane explores the diverse experiences of a community of Iraqi refugees, showing how they have struggled to negotiate their place in the wake of mass displacement. He highlights the promise of belonging, as well as their many painful encounters with exclusion. Ultimately, Crane provides a window into the complexities of what “becoming American” means for Iraqi refugees, even as they are perceived by other Americans as “security threats.” As debates about immigration and refugee status continue to play out in headlines and the courts, Iraqi Refugees in the United States provides important insight into the global refugee crisis.
