Abstract: | In this book, you will meet several individuals and families who experienced war and displacement during the civil war in northern Uganda (1986-2006). Based on ethnographic field research and specifically life histories, this book draws attention to their experiences and links this to broader analyses about 'post-conflict' society. It shows that displacement is more than a forced move from one geographical location to another, and that war and displacement disrupt social life in more ways than is often acknowledged in policymaking and discourse surrounding displacement. |
