Abstract:
An analysis of U.S. refugee resettlement policy reveals approaches that do not address several roof causes of resettlement difficulties: cultural differences, post-traumatic stress disorder, and discrimination by the host culture. Several recommendations are made for policy improvements, and suggestions for the future of international social welfare are presented.
