Abstract / Description of output

The Syrian conflict has turned into a humanitarian emergency, both in Syria and in neighbouring countries. For example, Jordan and Lebanon have each become a safe haven for more than one million refugees. This sudden increase in population resulted in severe pressures on infrastructures and services, as well as in growing social tensions between Syrian refugees and host communities. The volume adopts a transdisciplinary approach to investigate the political and socioeconomic impact of the Syrian refugees on Lebanon and Jordan, and these countries’ mechanisms to cope with the rapid human exodus. This chapter presents the rationales behind the volume and briefly introduces the contributions within it.
