SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This qualitative research study examined the question, What is the experience of survivorship for Iranian political prisoners? Six male participants who were imprisoned in Iran for political activism (fighting for civil rights and free speech, accurate representation, freedom from religious persecution, or humane treatment under detainment) narrated their experiences of survivorship through in-depth interviews. The data presented were analyzed utilizing the transcendental phenomenological research method to uncover the essence of survivorship. Six core textural themes emerged from the data: strength drawn from character and history, commitment to cause and a purpose to continue, demystifying the unknown through experience and education, reclaiming power and control, connecting with others, and transcending imprisonment by freeing the imagination. The themes were then further analyzed by their supporting universal structures: spaciality, causality, temporality, relationship with self, relationship with others, materiality, and bodyhood. This study is intended to be helpful for those working with former political prisoners, as well as those who experienced, or may experience, political imprisonment.
