Honduras A Crisis On The Border A Report On Salvadoran Refugees In Honduras written by and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1985 with categories.

This report examines protection problems for Salvadorian refugees currently in Honduran border camps. It comprises eight chapters: Introduction and Conclusions; Overview; Repatriation; the UNHCR; Relocation; Border Incidents; Lessons for the Future; and, Behind the Scenes: the United States. Its findings are based on fieldwork carried out in 1984 and on subsequent research. The authors describe the recent history and current conditions of Salvadorian refugees and they note that there are 19,000 in Honduran border camps. The Honduran Government's proposal to repatriate the refugees in the light of the conflict situation in El Salvador is discussed as well as the role and activities of the UNHCR and US policy regarding them. The authors argue that the security of the refugees in the camps has deteriorated mainly because of a public campaign initiated by the US, Honduran and Salvadorian Governments which portrays the refugees as guerrilla supporters. The authors cite incidents of attacks and threats by armed men and military personnel against refugees and refugee personnel, noting that military patrols are undertaken near the border and in the camps themselves. The Honduran Government's policy of accelerated repatriation is criticized and the authors question its voluntary nature, given the conflict situation in El Salvador. In examining the limitations on the protection role of the UNHCR, the authors point out that: 1) Honduras has not ratified the 1951 UN Convention relating to the Status of Refugees nor its 1967 Protocol; 2) the Honduran Government occasionally refuses to let UNHCR reception centres near the border operate; and 3) the Honduran Government has frequently refused to cooperate with UNHCR following security incidents near refugee camps. The authors recommend that responsibility for ensuring that repatriation is voluntary should remain with the UNHCR and that this function should not be shared with any government authority or with the Intergovernmental Committee on Migration. They conclude that the greatest threat to the security of the refugees is posed by Honduran security forces.

Honduras is a Central American country with a rich cultural history and a diverse population of approximately nine million people. The country is known for its stunning natural beauty, including tropical rain forests, mountain ranges, and the Caribbean Sea. Honduras was once home to the ancient Maya civilization, whose ruins can still be seen across the country today. Despite its natural beauty and cultural heritage, Honduras is one of the poorest countries in Latin America. The country faces many challenges, including high levels of inequality, political unrest, and violence. However, in recent years, Honduras has started to make progress towards improving its economy and reducing poverty. The country has also become an increasingly popular destination for tourists, thanks to its incredible natural beauty and friendly people.

This valuable book summarizes recent research by experts from both the natural and social sciences on the effects of population growth on land use. It is a useful introduction to a field in which little quantitative research has been conducted and in which there is a great deal of public controversy. The book includes case studies of African, Asian, and Latin American countries that demonstrate the varied effects of population growth on land use. Several general chapters address the following timely questions: What is meant by land use change? Why are ecological research and population studies so different? What are the implications for sustainable growth in agricultural production? Although much work remains to be done in quantifying the causal connections between demographic and land use changes, this book provides important insights into those connections, and it should stimulate more work in this area.

"Honduras is violent." Adrienne Pine situates this oft-repeated claim at the center of her vivid and nuanced chronicle of Honduran subjectivity. Through an examination of three major subject areas—violence, alcohol, and the export-processing (maquiladora) industry—Pine explores the daily relationships and routines of urban Hondurans. She views their lives in the context of the vast economic footprint on and ideological domination of the region by the United States, powerfully elucidating the extent of Honduras's dependence. She provides a historically situated ethnographic analysis of this fraught relationship and the effect it has had on Hondurans' understanding of who they are. The result is a rich and visceral portrait of a culture buffeted by the forces of globalization and inequality.

This book provides a political and cultural history of Honduras, covering the era of the Mayan and Lenca civilizations to today's current political strife. Honduras has suffered both political trauma and natural disasters throughout its history. In 1969, Honduras' political tensions with El Salvador during a soccer series preliminary to the World Cup led to the four-day-long "Football War." In 1998, Hurricane Mitch caused billions of dollars of damage to Honduras; ten years later, half of the country's roadways were ruined, often beyond repair, by substantial flooding. Most recently, many countries have frowned upon the Honduran government's shift of power from the president to the head of Congress. The History of Honduras provides a comprehensive history of the small Latin American country, detailing Honduras's geography and current political systems with emphasis on its politics and cultural life. Recent coups and political controversy make Honduras an important Central American nation for today's students to study and understand.
