Description
"This book explores how the Balkan wars have affected the everyday life and mental health in particular of Serbian immigrants and their families in Australia, and how they have responded to long distance grief, devastation and dislocation." "It examines how mass media has enabled migrants to see and feel the impact of events happening in their homeland more vividly than in any other previous conflict and how the international consensus which blames the Serbs for perpetrating the wars has stigmatised this immigrant community. In doing so, the author, who is a mental health expert, deals with issues of globalisation, fragmentation and adaptation of national and cultural identities, grief and alienation, and the effects of these on mental health and well-being."--Jacket.
