Recenzii
Dr. Sandhya helps us understand the relation between trauma and integration for refugee populations worldwide. She draws upon first-hand narratives from hundreds of refugees, skillfully weaving in statistics and historical context lacking from any single academic article in this sphere. Sharing her own clinical and personal experiences, she models the power in vulnerability and openness in our own responses to trauma and emotions that can pose challenges for mental health, legal, and other helping professionals. Dr. Sandhya promises a roadmap for countries, local/regional bodies, and institutions to use in navigating how responses to trauma in refugee populations. Above all, she emphasizes the enormous potential and value to our communities that refugees can bring if properly supported and welcomed.
Shaifali Sandhya's book Displaced by far is probably the only book which touches upon the aspect of trauma of refugees across the world and how their appropriate integration into the mainstream can benefit the society at large. Often, refugees are overlooked as a population which has moved from one country to the other owing to oppression or violence and one bereft of the potential to contribute to nation building. Shaifali's book delves into these intricacies of refugee trauma, post-trauma care, and the geopolitics and provides interesting perspectives which will be useful for not only the general reader but also those who are engaged in various refugee-related work. With the world witnessing increased conflicts, the refugee issue is something that all nations ought to address as a global community with much urgency.
Displaced is an exceptional and wide-ranging examination of the multiplicity of hardships that refugees face in the 21st century. Shaifali Sandhya book will be of great interest to anyone concerned about the individual and collective traumas that affects millions of refugees today. A major contribution to 21st century refugee studies.
