A Psychoanalytic Exploration of Social Trauma: The Inner Worlds of Outer Realities

With chapters from a diverse range of European authors, the book considers social trauma as it relates to stories and history, group identity, the consulting room, migration and post-traumatic conditions. These topics are explored via a range of frames, including individual therapy, group analysis, social dream matrix, large groups, study cases, narrative recollections and cinematographic expression. The book also considers the implications of new technology in causing and treating social trauma.
