Men and women displaced in different sites, from different backgrounds, and at different times have played for high stakes: they deliberated about what to say and to whom, and they sought, expected, and effected a response. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eRefugee Voices in Modern Global History\u003c\/em\u003e places refugees at the centre of modern history. It demonstrates how ordinary refugees understood their experiences of displacement and engaged with institutions that sought 'solutions' to their predicament. Ranging widely across global contexts to establish what refugees had to say and to whom, it shows them to have consistently been purposeful actors, making it possible to transcend conventional and hackneyed depictions of 'crisis'. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy adopting the term 'refugeedom' the authors show how the voices and perspectives of refugees can be incorporated alongside the power dynamics associated with the multiple incarnations of the refugee regime that 'managed' refugees and articulated 'solutions' to their predicament. Extensive archival research across three continents makes it possible to explain in comparative terms the significance attached to the encounters between refugees and officials in modern Europe, South Asia, the Middle East, East Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa. The result is an original and in-depth study of the contrasting responses of refugees to displacement and to the arrangements made on their behalf at a series of critical junctures in the past.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeter Gatrell, \u003cem\u003eEmeritus Professor of History, University of Manchester\u003c\/em\u003e, Katarzyna Nowak, \u003cem\u003eMSCA Fellow, University of Vienna\u003c\/em\u003e, Lauren Banko, \u003cem\u003eWellcome Trust Research Fellow, University of Manchester\u003c\/em\u003e, Anindita Ghoshal, \u003cem\u003eAssociate Professor of History, Diamond Harbour Women's University\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePeter Gatrell was appointed to a lectureship in economic history at the University of Manchester in 1976 and retired in 2021 when he became an emeritus professor.
