- Abstract
- This is a study of seven men that have suffered from a cruel punishment. The punishment involved getting their ear/ears cut off, prison with more torture and their families being deported from their homes to another town.
My sample involved seven Iraqi men who suffered from this punishment during Saddams regime, they got this punishment because they refused to fight against Iran and Kuwait.

The study focuses on their suffering and how they have been able to live with this stigma. The method the study has used is the kvalitative method that involved interviewing them in their country Iraq and analyse their answers and then come to the results. My study was between 26 of March 2004 to 26 of April 2004.
My study is based on the theory of social interaction and especially the symbolic interaction theories of G.H. Mead, H. Blumer and E.Goffman. This study has explained the effect of the stigma in their interaction with other people and it's effect on their inside, and the study had came to many results which explain and summerize the state of the victims. These results reflected the size of the suffering of these men inflicted on them by Saddams regime. With this study I hope I can make the victims voices heard. (Less)
