Reconstructing Lives, Recapturing Meaning presents the first
systematic investigation of refugees' loss of their old identities
and their efforts to construct new ones. Edited by the Chair and
Vice Chair of the Committee on Refugee Issues (CORI) of the
American Anthropological Association, it critically examines the
interplay between cultural, ethnic, and gender constructions among
resettled refugee populations. Each chapter is grounded in
anthropological theory and method, and the book's framework
demonstrates the relationship between the dynamics of forced
migration and the ways in which ethnic and gender identities are
reinvented in new socio-cultural settings. Unanimous in their
perception of boundary maintenance as central to identity
formation, these essays allow readers to view refugee resettlement
as a creative, experimental process.
