Como pensar em uma verdadeira integração dos refugiados considerando-se as vivências traumáticas dessas pessoas? O deslocamento forçado é um desafio global crescente. Em 2022, o Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para os Refugiados (ACNUR) registrou um novo recorde: 100 milhões de pessoas foram obrigadas a fugir por causa de guerras, conflitos e perseguições. Muitas vêm da Síria, um país que, desde 2011, enfrenta uma violenta guerra civil. São migrantes que, em meio a um movimento compulsório e frequentemente traumático, lutam para preservar suas vidas e resgatar as próprias identidades. Neste contexto, qual é o papel da memória? Este livro investiga o trabalho de refugi...
A manual addressed to students rather than to teachers or researchers, Oral History: An Introduction for Students is unique among the "how to" books in the field, adapting some of the best methods of group oral history projects to the needs of individual students. Useful in courses devoted entirely to oral history, the book also addresses the wider audience of students who may choose to do oral research in the context of otherwise traditional courses.

Only by achieving such flexibility, argues the author, can oral history fully realize its potential as a ...
In January of 2015, under the 1st International Caparica Conference in Antibiotic Resistance, a Research Topic entitled: “Surveying Antimicrobial Resistance: Approaches, Issues, and Challenges to overcome”, was published (http://journal.frontiersin.org/researchtopic/3763/surveying-antimicrobial-resistanceapproaches- issues-and-challenges-to-overcome).

On March 24, 1944, Nazi occupation forces in Rome killed 335 unarmed civilians in retaliation for a partisan attack the day before. Portelli has crafted an eloquent, multi-voiced oral history of the massacre, of its background and its aftermath. The moving stories of the victims, the women and children who survived and carried on, the partisans who fought the Nazis, and the common people who lived through the tragedies of the war together paint a many-hued portrait of one of the world's most richly historical cities. The Order Has Been Carried Out powerfully relates the struggles for freedom under Fascism and Nazism, the battles for memory in post-war democracy, and the meanings of death and grief in modern society.
