  In the West it is still common to think that full-scale war and the destruction of homelands effectively ended in 1945. Yet with ethnic and territorial disputes still common in many parts of the world - most recently in Yugoslavia - the refugee problem is graver than at any time in history. The United Nations' research teams attempt to analyze the degree of suffering with this survey of refugees across the globe. It is a record of despair that lies behind the nightly new headlines from Bosnia, Mogadishu, Chad, Azerbaijan and countless other troubled areas of the world.
