This companion presents a transnational and interdisciplinary study
of refugee narratives. In response to the oversaturation of
sociological, governmental, and journalistic narratives about
refugees, this book examines the narratives refugees tell to, for,
and about themselves. Engaging a rich variety of genres-fiction,
autobiography, prose, poetry, graphic novels, film, photography,
performance, social media-the chapters included in this anthology
examine how conditions of forced displacement and encounters with
different asylum regimes shape the form and content of refugee
cultural production. Chapters are organized around three key
forms-storytelling, testimony, (auto)ethnography-and four key
themes-memory (and forgetting), human rights (and its limitations),
border-crossing (and nation-states), and cartographies (of
displacement and diaspora). This volume will be of interest to
researchers, teachers, students, and practitioners. In addition to
analyzing refugee narratives, contributors offer pedagogical
strategies for how to teach, discuss, and engage refugee narratives
in the contemporary political moment.
