Because of the trauma and losses that refugees have faced, refugee research presents special difficulties. As researchers, we interview and work with people who may have been tortured or had family members tortured; who have lost family members, some of whom may have disappeared in the night, never to be seen again; whose flight placed them in physical danger from planes strafing the escape route, or from robbers, thieves, and rapists attacking their group. In my ten years of working with refugees, no one I encountered has been without emotional or physical scars.
