Biography

Jay Marlowe is Associate Professor in the Department of Counselling, Human Services and Social Work at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. A former visiting fellow with the Refugee Studies Centre at the University of Oxford, UK, he has published more than 50 papers and is co-editor of South Sudanese Diaspora in Australia and New Zealand: Reconciling the Past with the Present.

With its accessible theoretical frameworks and diverse case study analyses, Belonging and Transnational Refugee Settlement is highly recommended for undergraduates, graduate students, and practitioners who are interested in refugee settlement from fields of migration studies, sociology, social work, health, policy, and other applied fields." – Georgina Ramsay, Refuge
