Czechoslovakia's Cold War Refugee Children: Contemporary Resonance - Paperback
by Miriam Potocky Rafaidus (Author), T. Alexander Aleinikoff (Author), Laura Hammond (Author)
What can the lived experiences of Czechoslovak Cold War refugee children tell us about the lifetime impact of childhood forced migration?
This is the story of author Miriam Potocky Rafaidus and more than thirty other Czechoslovak Cold War refugee children. Miriam shares her lived experience, as well as archival oral histories, to ultimately answer the question: does anyone ever stop being a refugee?
These testimonies from some of the earliest and youngest refugees in contemporary history will illuminate an underexamined group and explore what lessons can be learned applying to refugee children and youth of today and tomorrow.
Engaging with themes such as memory, trauma, and ethnic identity, this book is ideal reading for students of Forced Migration and Refugee Studies, Ethnic Studies, Gerontology, Contemporary History, Immigration History, Developmental Psychology, Exile Studies, Anthropology, and Sociology.
