ABSTRACT

This paper aims to handle the conceptual framework within which critics present home. It helps us think about our relationship with home and examine questions about the problem of displacement directing research to Third World. This overview provides the vocabulary for articulating this dilemma. Regarding methodology, the paper is an in-depth qualitative study based on views of selected critics. The findings have indicated that applying the critics' reflections on the conditions of people is advocated to detect whether homing is attainable or still remains a desire aspired to. Hence, the paper, as a preliminary study, stimulates for further research.
