Summary
Displacement, dispossession and civil war have always been handmaidens. Looking just at South and Southeast Asia, the Philippines and Sri Lanka, Myanmar and Pakistan, Afghanistan, India and neighboring Bangladesh, China, Tibet, and Turkic former Soviet Republics harbor millions of peoples displaced in the last two decades alone. Similarly, between Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Egypt, Israel, Iran, Cyprus, and North African countries, Middle East is now home to more than 10 million displaced peoples, not able to leave the region and shuffled between different war zones. In Europe and Eurasia, at least 2.5 million people remain internally displaced. In the case of Bosnia, Serbia, and Kosovo, and Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia in the South Caucasus, scores have been “displaced” for close to two decades now, and a whole new generation of children are born while being dispossessed. Thus far, hardly any substantive connections have been made between the framework for state criminality defined by international criminal law and the justice and accountability approach, and the exponentially increasing waves of forced migration and displacement.
