title: International factors in the formation of refugee movements.
abstract: The authors construct a theoretical framework for analyzing factors influencing international refugee movements.  "On the basis of detailed case studies by the authors of the principal refugee flows generated in Asia, Africa, and Latin America from approximately 1960 to the present, it was found that international factors often intrude both directly and indirectly on the major types of social conflict that trigger refugee flows, and tend to exacerbate their effects.  Refugees are also produced by conflicts that are manifestly international, but which are themselves often related to internal social conflict among the antagonists."
