Synopsis:
This edited book presents many hitherto unaddressed aspects of post-genocide Rohingya lives in refugee camps in Bangladesh. Amid an everyday struggle for daily essentials, violent tensions within and outside the camps, growing anti-Rohingya sentiment in the host community as well as the decreasing international support during the repatriation process, Rohingya adolescents and youths show strategies of coping and agency to alter their present and reshape their future. An upsurge in digital literacy, mounting transnational connectivity, growing engagement with diaspora Rohingya activism and a cumulative presence in social media for sentiment mobilisation on a local and global scale has motivated them to bring about change for themselves and their community within the camps. This book accommodates such fresh and high-quality research on the Rohingya refugees living in the borderland of Bangladesh and Myanmar, conducted by acclaimed academics, professional researchers, and committed activists from across the world, for researchers and students of migration, sociology of race and ethnicity, anthropology, diaspora studies, peace and conflict studies and social work.
