Description
Involuntary Dislocation: Home, Trauma, Resilience and Adversity-Activated Development by Renos K. Papadopoulos explores the complex experiences of people who are forced to leave their homes in search of safety. This book provides a detailed guide to understanding involuntary dislocation as a distinct phenomenon, challenging existing assumptions and exploring its linguistic, historical, and cultural contexts. Papadopoulos examines key themes such as home, identity, nostalgic disorientation, and trauma, providing an in-depth understanding of each contributing factor. The book also articulates an approach to conceptualising and working with people who have experienced adversities engendered by involuntary displacement, and reflects on the language of repair and renewal. This comprehensive guide is essential reading for psychotherapists, clinical psychologists, counsellors, and other professionals working with individuals who have experienced displacement. It will also be valuable for anyone seeking to understand the psychosocial impact of extreme adversity.
