Refugees experience some of the most visible manifestations of
human rights abuses in the world today--and raise difficult issues
for researchers and policy makers alike. This book investigates a
broad range of complexities that arise as ethnographers work with
refugee populations from different geographic areas in research,
policy formation, and legal and social assistance. But the issues
raised here have application to ethical concerns in ethnographic
research and practice beyond refugees. The contributors draw on
their intensive fieldwork to explore issues surrounding power and
disempowerment between researcher and subject; dilemmas over the
protection of research informants; and the rights and actions of
refugees in representing themselves and their cultures in advocacy
and policy arenas. The wealth of important insights in this book
sharpen our understanding of the problems faced in any
cross-cultural research and intervention. These explorations
revitalize, in vivid detail drawn from case studies, recent
theoretical debates on anthropology and ethnographic research,
while suggesting new, empowering approaches to applied work and
ethnographic study.
