This book investigates the emergence of the unaccompanied child refugee as a 'crisis figure'. It shows how the sense of exceptionality attached to the figure translates into ambiguous and at times extremely contradictory social practices that have far-reaching effects on the lives of refugee youth.

By exploring the lifeworlds of two middle-aged Somalis living in Melbourne, Australia, Being-Here sheds light on the existential dynamics of being-in-place.
