Practicing Oral History among Refugees and Host Communities
provides a comprehensive and practical guide to applied oral
history with refugees, teaching the reader how to use applied,
contemporary oral history to help provide solutions to the
'mega-problem' that is the worldwide refugee crisis. The book
surveys the history of the practice and explains its successful
applications in fields from journalism, law and psychiatry to
technology, the prevention of terrorism and the design of public
services. It defines applied oral history with refugees as a field,
teaching rigorous, accessible methodologies for doing it, as well
as outlining the importance of doing the same work with host
communities. The book examines important legal and ethical
parameters around this complex, sensitive field, and highlights the
cost-effective, sustainable benefits that are being drawn from this
work at all levels. It outlines the sociopolitical and theoretical
frameworks around such oral histories, and the benefits for
practitioners' future careers. Both in scope and approach, it
thoroughly equips readers for doing their own oral history projects
with refugees or host communities, wherever they are. Using
innovative case studies from seven continents and from the author's
own work, this manual is the ideal guide for oral historians and
those working with refugees or host communities.
