This book focuses on refugee resettlement in the post-9/11 environment of the United States with theoretical work and ethnographic case studies that portray loss, transition, and resilience. Each chapter unpacks resettlement at the macro or micro scale, underscoring the multiple, and mostly unsupported, negotiations refugees must undertake in their familial, social, educational, and work spheres to painstakingly reconstruct and reintegrate their lives. The contributors show how civil society groups and individuals push back against xenophobic policies and strive to support refugee communities, and how agentive efforts result in refugees establishing stable lives, despite punishing odds. This volume will be of interest to anthropologists and other scholars with a focus on refugee and migration studies.

Marnie K. Watson is an applied medical anthropologist and Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Missouri State University. Her research and teaching focus on homelessness, race and ethnicity, urban anthropology, expressive culture, modernity, behavioral health, migration, and refugee health.

Pritha Gopalan is an educational anthropologist and the Director of Research and Learning at the Newark Trust for Education. She is committed to research grounded in community experiences and perspectives in education, refugee resettlement, and urban development. She is the author of PPP Paradox: Promise and Perils of Public-Private Partnership in Education.
