Great Decisions Lecture Series: Refugees and Global Migration

Today, no countries have open borders. Every state in today’s global system has its own laws and policies about who is permitted to cross its borders, and how they will do so. Who determines whether someone is a refugee or a migrant? How have different countries, including the United States, reacted to migration? How effective are the international laws, policies and organizations that have evolved to assist and protect refugees and migrants?

The Muskogee Public Library welcomes Dr. Cheryl Van Den Handel as our lecturer and facilitator for this important topic.
