Reflections on Healing
How people survive in a circle of hell I’ll never know. How they trust again in the human family I’ll never know. How they can smile once more after seeing evil deeply and repeatedly I’ll never know. How they let the horrors fade and live for the future I’ll never know. How they learn to trust themselves again and find their voices– this I know. Erin Martz
Acknowledgments
A researcher meets many minds along the path of investigation. While the ideational influence of many researchers is acknowledged by citations in this book, other individuals have been influential by their interaction with me at various stages of the development of this book; these include, but are limited to, the following people. I would like to thank the Organization of the Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in the Czech Republic for opening their archives to me during my time as a Researcher-in-Residence in the summer of 2008 and to thank Alice Nemcova at OSCE for her enthusiastic help. I would also like to thank Dr. Pam Cogdal for encouraging me to move forward with the idea that I had for this book in 2007, which was at a time when I did not want to tackle such a new mountain. I would also like to thank Samantha Daniel, who helped me retrieve some articles and books for this research. Thanks are due to Jennifer Hadley (the current) and Carol Bischoff (the previous), Senior Editor at Springer of New York; they both have been friendly and supportive during the writing of both of my books. Thanks also are due to Dr. Hanoch Livneh for providing valuable feedback on Chapter 2 (by Martz and Lindy). Thanks also go to friends (Hanoch, Catherine, Zehavit, Kakali among numerous others),
