This volume explores the factors that give rise to the number of people seeking asylum and examines the barriers they currently and will continue to face. Divided into three parts, the authors first explore the causality that generates displacement, examining climate change, illegal conflicts and the deprivation of natural resources.

A number of issues conspire to render the fate of migrants truly desperate, as they are forced to leave their lands that, due to the...
