Yazidis on the Margins of Humanity
After ISIS’s 2014 genocide, hundreds of thousands of Yazidis fled Sinjar, their ancestral homeland in northern Iraq. This book traces how they navigate the contradictions of internal displacement—caught between formal citizenship and humanitarian aid, and suspended between a traumatic past and a future they cannot securely claim.
A critical and valuable contribution to the blossoming literature on the Yezidis as well as the established literatures on humanitarianism and asylum politics.— Güneş Murat Tezcür, author of Liminal Minorities
