reviewed The Empire of Trauma: An Inquiry into the Condition of Victimhood on January 16, 2016
The Empire of Trauma
An interesting review of the rise of humanitarian treatment of trauma. The most interesting parts to me were the discussions of trauma post WW1, where psychiatry began to see trauma as a condition in a normal individual suffering through an extreme environment, rather than an innate characteristic of the individual in question. The discussions of the rise of humanitarian treatment of PTSD (after earthquakes in Iran and Armenia, in which there were already adequate services for physical trauma, were also interesting; in the sense that the humanitarians created this zone of action for themselves.
