Psychoanalytic work with socially traumatised patients is an
increasingly popular vocation, but remains extremely demanding and
little covered in the literature. In Psychoanalysis and Holocaust
Testimony, a range of contributors draw upon their own clinical
work, and on research findings from work with seriously disturbed
Holocaust survivors, to illuminate how best to conduct clinical
work with such patients in order to maximise the chances of a
positive outcome, and to reflect transferred trauma for the
clinician. Psychoanalysis and Holocaust Testimony closely examines
the phenomenology of destruction inherent in the discourse of
extreme traumatization, focusing on a particular case study: the
recording of video testimonies from a group of extremely
traumatized, chronically hospitalized Holocaust survivors in
psychiatric institutions in Israel. This case study demonstrates
how society reacts to unwanted memories, in media, history, and
psychoanalysis - but it also shows how psychotherapists and
researchers try to approach the buried memories of the survivors,
through being receptive to shattered life narratives. Questions of
bearing witness, testimony, the role of denial, and the impact of
traumatic narrative on society and subsequent generations are
explored. A central thread of this book is the unconscious
countertransference resistance to the trauma discourse, which
manifests itself in arenas that are widely apart, such as genocide
denial, the "disappearance" of the hospitalized Holocaust survivors
and of their life stories, mishearing their testimonies and
ultimately refusing them the diagnosis of "traumatic psychosis".
Psychoanalysis and Holocaust Testimony provides an essential,
multidisciplinary guide to working psychoanalytically with severely
traumatised patients. It will appeal to psychoanalysts,
psychoanalytic psychotherapists and trauma studies therapists.
Women and men in cinema are imaginary constructs created by
filmmakers and their audiences. The film-psychoanalytic approach
reveals how movies subliminally influence unconscious reception. On
the other hand, the movie is embedded in a cultural tradition: Jean

motif of the animal gro

filmmakers and their audiences. The film-psychoanalytic approach
reveals how movies subliminally influence unconscious reception. On
the other hand, the movie is embedded in a cultural tradition: Jean
Cocteau's film La Belle et la Bete (1946) takes up the classic
motif of the animal groom from the story of Cupid and Psyche in
Apuleius' The Golden Ass (originally a tale about the stunning
momentum of genuine female desire), liberates it from its baroque
educational moral (a girl's virtue and prudence will help her to
overcome her sexual fears), and turns it into a boyhood story:
inside the ugly rascal there is a good, but relatively boring
prince - at least in comparison to the monsters of film history. In
the seventy years since it was made, La Belle et la Bete has
inspired numerous interpretations and has been employed by
theorists of all genres and interests.
This book explores the intersection of clinical and social aspects
of traumatic experiences in postdictatorial and post-war societies,
forced migration, and other circumstances of collective violence.
Contributors outline conceptual approaches, treatment methods, and
research strategies for understanding social traumatizations in a
wider conceptual frame that includes both clinical psychology and
psychiatry. Accrued from a seven year interdisciplinary and
international dialogue, the book presents multiple scholarly and
practical views from clinical psychology and psychiatry to social
and cultural theory, developmental psychology, memory studies, law,
research methodology, ethics, and education. Among the topics
discussed: Theory of social trauma Psychoanalytic and
psychotherapeutic approaches to social trauma Memory studies
Developmental psychology of social trauma Legal and ethical aspects
Specific methodology and practice in social trauma research Social
Trauma: An International Textbook fills a critical gap between
clinical and social theories of trauma, offering a basis for
university teaching as well as an overview for all who are involved
in the modern issues of victims of social violence. It will be a
useful reference for students, teachers, and researchers in
psychology, medicine, education, and political science, as well as
for therapists and mental health practitioners dealing with
survivors of collective violence, persecution, torture and forced
migration.

Forced Migration and Social Trauma addresses the topic of social
trauma and migration by bringing together a broad range of
interdisciplinary and international contributors, comprising
refugee care practitioners, trauma researchers, sociologists and
specialists in public policy from all along the Balkan refugee
route into Europe. It gives the essence of a moderated dialogue
between psychologists and psychoanalysts, sociologists, public
policy and refugee care experts. Migration is connected to social
trauma and cannot be handled without being aware of this context.
The way refugees are treated in the transit or target countries is
often determined by the socio-traumatic history of these countries.
Social trauma can be collectively committed and perpetuated,
leaving transgenerational traces in posttraumatic and attachment
disorders, uprootedness and loss of social and political
confidence. Media and cultural artefacts like press, TV and the
internet influence collective coping as well as traumatic
perpetuation. This book shows how xenophobia in the refugee
receiving or transit countries can be caused by projection rather
than by experience, and that the way refugees are received and
regarded in a country may be connected to the country's
cultural-traumatic history. Refugees, who are often individually
and collectively traumatised, experience multiple re-enactments;
however, such retraumatisations between refugees and receiving
populations or institutions often remain unaddressed. The split
between welcoming and hostile attitudes sometimes leads to
unconscious institutional defences, such as lack of cooperation
between medical, psychotherapeutic, humanitarian and legal
institutions. An interdisciplinary and international exchange on
migration and social trauma is necessary on all levels - this book
gives convincing examples of this dialogue. Forced Migration and
Social Trauma will be of great interest to all who are involved in
the modern issues of refuge and migration.

Trauma is one of the most important topics discussed throughout the
clinical, social and cultural field. Social traumatization, as we
meet it in the aftermath of genocide, war and persecution, is
targeted at whole groups and thus affects the individual's
immediate holding environment, cutting it off from an important
resilience factor; further on, social trauma is implemented in a
societal context, thus involving the surrounding society in the
traumatic process. Both conditions entail major consequences for
the impact and prognosis of the resulting individual posttraumatic
disorders as well as for the social and cultural consequences. The
volume connects clinical and epidemiological studies on the
sequelae of social trauma to reflections from social psychology and
the humanities. Post-war and post-dictatorial societies are in
particular marked by the effects of massive, large group
traumatization, and if these are not acknowledged, explored, and
mourned, the unprocessed cumulative trauma that has become deeply
embedded in the collective memory leads to periodical
reactivations. To address social trauma, an interdisciplinary
approach is required.
Durch Informatisierung und Medialisierung werden wir als Individuen
immer starker in eine technologische OEkologie eingewoben. Kann
Sigmund Freuds ursprungliche Absicht, psychische Prozesse
naturwissenschaftlich zu erklaren, mit den avancierten Mitteln der
Technik doch noch verwirklicht werden? Ist die Psychoanalyse eine
Moeglichkeit, in der technisierten und medialisierten Lebenswelt
Subjektivitat neu zu fassen oder weicht sie einer vorherrschend
technischen Auffassung von Koerper und Krankheit? Die Beitrage
dieses Bandes fragen aus soziologischer, psychologischer,
medizinischer und philosophischer Sicht nach der Relevanz des
psychoanalytischen Diskurses fur unsere Gesellschaft.
