Book Synopsis Psychosocial Wellness of Refugees by : Frederick L. Ahearn
Download or read book Psychosocial Wellness of Refugees written by Frederick L. Ahearn and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, scholars in the fields of refugee studies and forced migration have extended their areas of interest and research into the phenomenon of displacement, human response to it, and ways to intervene to assist those affected, increasingly focusing on the emotional and social impact of displacement on refugees and their adjustment to the traumatic experiences. In the process, the positive concept of "psychosocial wellness" was developed as discussed in this volume. In it noted scholars address the strengths and limitations of their investigations, citing examples from their work with refugees from Afghanistan, Cambodia, Vietnam, Palestine, Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, Eastern Europe, Bosnia, and Chile. The authors discuss how they define "psychosocial wellness," as well as the issues of sample selection, measurement, reliability and validity, refugee narratives and "voices," and the ability to generalize findings and apply these to other populations. The key question that has guided many of these investigations and underlies the premise of this book is "what happens to an ordinary person who has experienced an extraordinary event?" This volume also highlights the fact that those involved in such research must also deal with their own emotional responses as they hear victims tell of killing, torture, humiliation, and dispossesion. The volume will therefore appeal to practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, social work, nursing, and anthropology. However, its breadth and the evaluation of the strengths and disadvantages of both qualitative and quantitative methods also make it an excellent text for students.
Book Synopsis Forced Migration and Social Trauma by : Andreas Hamburger
Download or read book Forced Migration and Social Trauma written by Andreas Hamburger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forced Migration and Social Trauma addresses the topic of social trauma and migration by bringing together a broad range of interdisciplinary and international contributors, comprising refugee care practitioners, trauma researchers, sociologists and specialists in public policy from all along the Balkan refugee route into Europe. It gives the essence of a moderated dialogue between psychologists and psychoanalysts, sociologists, public policy and refugee care experts. Migration is connected to social trauma and cannot be handled without being aware of this context. The way refugees are treated in the transit or target countries is often determined by the socio-traumatic history of these countries. Social trauma can be collectively committed and perpetuated, leaving transgenerational traces in posttraumatic and attachment disorders, uprootedness and loss of social and political confidence. Media and cultural artefacts like press, TV and the internet influence collective coping as well as traumatic perpetuation. This book shows how xenophobia in the refugee receiving or transit countries can be caused by projection rather than by experience, and that the way refugees are received and regarded in a country may be connected to the country’s cultural‐traumatic history. Refugees, who are often individually and collectively traumatised, experience multiple re-enactments; however, such retraumatisations between refugees and receiving populations or institutions often remain unaddressed. The split between welcoming and hostile attitudes sometimes leads to unconscious institutional defences, such as lack of cooperation between medical, psychotherapeutic, humanitarian and legal institutions. An interdisciplinary and international exchange on migration and social trauma is necessary on all levels – this book gives convincing examples of this dialogue. Forced Migration and Social Trauma will be of great interest to all who are involved in the modern issues of refuge and migration.
Book Synopsis The Psychology of Global Mobility by : Stuart C. Carr
Download or read book The Psychology of Global Mobility written by Stuart C. Carr and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human mobility has been a defining feature of human social evolution. In a global community, the term "mobility" captures the full gamut of types, directions, and patterns of human movement. The psychology of mobility is important because movement is inherently behavioral. Much of the behavioral study of mobility has focused on the negative – examining the trauma of forced migration, or the health consequences of the lack of adaptation – but this work looks into the benefits of mobility, such as its impact on career capital and well-being. Recent years have witnessed a phenomenal increase in efforts to understand human mobility, by social scientists, think-tanks, and policymakers alike. The book focuses on the transformational potential of mobility for human development. The book details the historical, methodological, and theoretical trajectory of human mobility (Context), followed by sections on pre-departure incentives and predispositions (Motivation), influences on acculturation, health and community fit (Adjustment), and changes in career capital, overcoming bias, and diaspora networks (Performance).

Book Synopsis An Uncertain Safety by : Thomas Wenzel
Download or read book An Uncertain Safety written by Thomas Wenzel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the psychosocial and medical issues of forced migration due to war, major disasters and political as well as climate changes. The topics are discussed in the context of public health and linked to organizational, legal and practical strategies that can offer guidance to professionals, as well as governmental and non-governmental organizations. Both internal and international displacement present substantial challenges that require new solutions and integrated approaches. Issues covered include an overview of current health challenges in the new refugee crises: medicine and mental health in disaster areas, long-term displacement and mental health, integration of legal, medical, social and health economic issues, children and unaccompanied minors, ethical challenges in service provision, short and long-term issues in host countries, models of crises intervention, critical issues, such as suicide prevention, new basic and “minimal” intervention models adapted to limited resources in psychosocial and mental health care, rebuilding of health care in post-disaster/conflict countries, training and burn-out prevention. The book was developed in collaboration with the World Psychiatric Association, and is endorsed by Fabio Grandi (UN High Commissioner for Refugees), Manfred Nowak (former UN Special Rapporteur for Torture), and Jorge Aroche (President of IRCT).

Book Synopsis Forced Migration and Mental Health by : David Ingleby
Download or read book Forced Migration and Mental Health written by David Ingleby and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-12-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although forced migration is not new in human history it has become, in our time, one of the world's major problems. In the last few decades, armed conflict and political unrest have created vast numbers of asylum seekers, refugees and displaced persons. This has led, in turn to increasing involvement of professional care workers and agencies, both governmental and nongovernmental. While there is no doubt on the part of helping parties that care is necessary, there is considerable debate about the kind of care that is needed. This book presents a critical review of mental health care provisions for people who have had to leave their homeland, and explores the controversies surrounding this topic. Providing fresh perspectives on an age old problem, this book covers humanitarian aid and reconstruction programs as well as service provision in host countries. It is of interest to all those who provide health services, create policy, and initiate legislation for these populations.
Book Synopsis Roots and Routes of Displacement and Trauma by : Soheila Pashang
Download or read book Roots and Routes of Displacement and Trauma written by Soheila Pashang and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting new book explores the lived conditions and experiences of trauma among the forcibly displaced, refugees, and migrants -- those who are uprooted from their places of origin -- tracing their journeys of transition to sites of arrival. Bringing together contributions by scholars, activists, professionals, and practitioners from a variety of fields and backgrounds, Roots and Routes of Displacement and Trauma is one of the first works of its kind to interrogate the social, political, and economic contexts of forced displacement in relation to its traumatic outcomes. The goal of the book is to encourage students and practitioners to critically analyze the causes and contexts of displacement. The resilience and strengths of migrants are emphasized, and readers are encouraged to learn what it means for people to adapt in the face of their new lived realities while challenging oppression. Among the topics explored in the book are theoretical approaches to displacement and trauma; the impact of environmental disasters, HIV/AIDS, war and conflict, gun violence, and employment trauma on displacement and trauma; the experiences of specific groups with respect to displacement, trauma, and healing, including indigenous peoples of Canada, the Maya of Guatemala, Roma, and Iraqi and Afghan women; ethical issues related to working with refugees; the effects of government policy on the lives of refugees in receiving countries; and the challenges faced by practitioners in working with migrants and refugees. The book is an invaluable resource for practitioners and scholars, as well as required reading for students in social work, social service and community worker, and immigrant studies programs.
Book Synopsis Displacement and Dispossession in the Modern Middle East by : Dawn Chatty
Download or read book Displacement and Dispossession in the Modern Middle East written by Dawn Chatty and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-08 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dispossession and forced migration in the Middle East remain even today significant elements of contemporary life in the region. Dawn Chatty's book traces the history of those who, as a reconstructed Middle East emerged at the beginning of the twentieth century, found themselves cut off from their homelands, refugees in a new world, with borders created out of the ashes of war and the fall of the Ottoman Empire. As an anthropologist, the author is particularly sensitive to individual experience and how these experiences have impacted on society as a whole from the political, social, and environmental perspectives. Through personal stories and interviews within different communities, she shows how some minorities, such as the Armenian and Circassian communities, have succeeded in integrating and creating new identities, whereas others, such as the Palestinians and the Kurds, have been left homeless within impermanent landscapes.
