| description | The current flow of human beings escaping their countries’ turmoil is not a temporary surge or a passing crisis. Mass
migration, accompanied by sudden surges of people, will be a permanent challenge to 21st century states and world
order. Recent surges of refugee and asylum claimants are testing the capacity of states and eroding traditions of
welcome in receiving countries for refugee and migrants alike. At the same time, the intersection of forced migration,
human rights, and conflict presents a unique challenge for world foreign policy in this 21st century. These three factors
are already beginning to combine in ways that undermine traditional understandings of national security and offer
ample reason to revisit traditional divisions of labour between diplomacy, defence, economic social development
policy around the world. Accordingly, this paper has three objectives. Firstly, this paper provides a brief overview of
refugee issues in the 21st century with major issue of forced migration, human rights, and conflict and its implications.
Secondly, this paper highlights emergent issues and challenge faced by the countries around the world regarding
refugees and humanity. Thirdly, this paper discusses the challenge of world diplomacy when it comes to the issue of
refugee and humanity. Finally, the paper will highlights the ways in which world foreign policy must adapt to meet
the challenges they facing today regarding this issue. |
