The contemporary psychiatric approach to trauma, encapsulated in
the diagnostic category of PTSD, has been criticized for its
neglect of the political dimensions involved in the etiology and
treatment of trauma. By means of a philosophical and
psychoanalytical analysis, the depoliticizing potential of the
biomedical approach is tied to a more general 'ethical crisis' in
post-traditional societies. Via the work of Lacan, Zizek and Badiou
on the act and the event, this book constructs a conceptual
framework that revives the ethical and political dimensions of
trauma recovery.
