| Summary, etc | Migration and security have been widely studied in international<br/>relations and political science. Migration is often presented as a<br/>threat to national sovereignty, state security as well as to the<br/>economic, social and cultural well–being. On security, all of the<br/>attention has been on national security, terrorism, extremism and<br/>crime. Hence, there is an alternative concept, human security, which<br/>emphasizes that the government's responsibility is not only to<br/>protect the territorial security and sovereign integrity of the state, but<br/>also the freedom and rights of its citizens. Thus, the notion of human<br/>security provides an opportunity to broaden our understanding of the<br/>economic, social and political challenges associated with migration,<br/>from the place of origin to transit, arrival and (re)settlement in a new<br/>location. South Asia homes about one-fourth of the world's<br/>population, making it both the most populous and the most densely<br/>populated geographical region in the world. This region has<br/>witnessed mass migration as many of the countries have emerged<br/>through the partition. Millions migrated between India and Pakistan<br/>and thousands during the formation of Bangladesh, ethnic conflict of<br/>Sri Lanka, Maoist Movement in Nepal and ethnic conflict of Bhutan. |
