Working with Families of African Caribbean Origin

Understanding Issues Around Immigration and Attachment

Beschreibung

Many of those who emigrated from the Caribbean to the UK after World War II left behind partners and children, causing the break-up of families who were often not reunited for several years. Elaine Arnold examines the psychological impact that immigration had on these families, in particular with relation to attachment issues.
