Efficacy of Narrative/Discourse Analysis and Autoethnographic Research Methods in Communication/Media and Ethnic Conflict Studies: A Reflection on Research about Rwandan Former Refugees and Genocide Survivors (FRGSs)
Abstract
In this chapter, the author briefly surveys some seminal macro- and micro- studies relevant to the study of forced migration narratives and discourses, identity, and sensemaking and resilience, and he presents some of his most significant research findings to-date on the narrative sensemaking and resilience processes of Rwandan former refugees and genocide survivors (FRGS). The author also reflects on the personal experiences that inspired him to take up that research, and the need for more scholars of communication/media and ethnic violence (and mass conflicts at large) to make use of their own shared backgrounds with research participants.
