For so long, skeptics said that Assad's fall would be violent and chaotic. The below shows how, when external powers finally agreed that he should go, the handover of power was peaceful. It's such a crime that this did not happen years ago.

Book Talk: The Ecosystem of Exile Politics
Join the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility for a discussion with Susan Banki, author of recently published The Ecosystem of Exile Politics: Why Proximity and Precarity Matter for Bhutan’s Homeland Activists.The Ecosystem of Exile Politics is one of the very few scholarly examinations of Bhutan’s exiled refugee population, and the activism in which its leaders engaged. It’s been noted for its ‘rigorous fieldwork, beautiful prose, and conceptual sophistication.’ The book relays the events in Bhutan that led to the exodus of one-sixth of the population, and then recounts the activism by Bhutan's refugee diaspora that followed in response. The book’s research shows that activism functions like a physical ecosystem, in which hubs of activism in different locations interact to pressure the home country. For Bhutan's refugee mobilizers, physical proximity offers advantages in Nepal and India, where organizing protests, lobbying, and collecting information about government abuse in Bhutan is aided by being close to the homeland. But in an ecosystem of exile politics, proximity is both a boon and a bane. Sites proximate to Bhutan can be spaces of risk and disempowerment, and refugee activists rarely secure legal, political, and social protection. While distant diasporas in the Global North may not be in precarious situations, they cannot tap into the advantages of proximity. In examining these phenomena, The Ecosystem of Exile Politics adds to theoretical understandings of exile politics and to empirical research on Bhutan and its refugee population.
