Description
The twentieth century has seen unprecedented displacement of people worldwide. This book offers an interdisciplinary study of the issue, focusing on the disruption of "trust" as a sentiment, concept, and experience among refugees. Fifteen scholars from diverse fields contribute to this collection, exploring both specific details of the refugee experience and corresponding theories of trust and mistrust. The essays examine how individuals experience their culture when removed from it, reflecting on individual identity and culture as a whole. The study encompasses a wide range of subjects, including Palestinians, Cambodians, Tamils, and Mayan Indians of Guatemala, providing a rich array of perspectives on the complex issue of trust among refugees.
