520 1 $a"Voices from the Camps tells the story of the most vulnerable of refugees: children alone, either orphaned or separated from their families."
520 8 $a"The hardships these children endured are disturbing, but more disturbing is the story of how the governments and agencies that set out to care for them eventually became the children's tormenters. When Vietnam, after years of refusing to readmit illegal emigrants, reversed its policy, the international community began doing everything it could to force them back to Vietnam. Cutting rations, closing schools, separating children from older relations and other caregivers, relocating them in order to destroy any sense of stability - the authorities employed coercion and effective abuse with distressing ease, all in the name of the "best interests" of the children."--Jacket.
