ABSTRACT
This chapter is the first of the book’s three empirical chapters and it uses the conceptual framework developed in Chapter 2 to analyse the interview data from Bosnia-Herzegovina. It discusses some of the broken and ruptured connectivities that Bosnian interviewees talked about (including community relationships and health); and it examines some of the many supportive and sustaining connectivities that were salient in the data (from family to the natural environment). The final sections explore the meta theme of new connectivities, including some of the ways that interviewees were seeking to make meaning from their experiences (often frustrated in this regard by the wider political context in the country).
