Abstract |
|
|
| As the world grapples with the complexities of refugee crises, the differential treatment of displaced populations
from various regions raises profound questions about the underlying motivations and ethical implications of international
responses. This paper employs a theoretical framework rooted in Critical Race Theory (CRT) to analyze the selectivity in the
international communitys response to refugee crises, with a particular focus on the Ukrainian refugee crisis. By examining
the radicalized perceptions and historical power imbalances at play, this study aims to elucidate disparities in refugee
protection and support. Drawing on recent developments and scholarly literature, the paper conducts a comparative analysis
of the treatment of Ukrainian refugees with refugees from other conflict zones, such as Syria, Afghanistan, and Africa.
Through this comparative lens, the paper explores the complexities of refugee policies, aid distribution, and public discourse,
highlighting the underlying dynamics shaping refugee protection. The findings underscore the need for more equitable and
ethical responses to displacement, informed by an understanding of the intersecting factors of race, ethnicity, and national
identity. Ultimately, this research contributes to ongoing discussions on refugee rights and calls for a reevaluation of
international refugee policies through a lens of social justice and anti-racism |
