Book Synopsis War Violence, Trauma and the Coping Process: Armed Conflict in Europe and Survivor Response by : Libby Tata Arcel (ed.)
Download or read book War Violence, Trauma and the Coping Process: Armed Conflict in Europe and Survivor Response written by Libby Tata Arcel (ed.). This book was released on 1998. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the result of research based on the field experience of the contributors with the survivors of ethnic cleansing in the Balkans. The book is divided into ten parts, each dealing with different aspects of the trauma experienced by the survivors but with the central theme of the human costs of war violence and ethnic persecution. The articles focus on ways in which refugees themselves have attempted to cope with these costs and the way in which professionals and nonprofessionals have understood their suffering and responded to it. Contributions to this volume make recommendations for a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment and the recovery of refugees subjected to human rights violations. Besides treatment and rehabilitation of the victims of war, the authors emphasize on the importance of dealing with transgenerational trauma through a societal process of examining the truth and creating reconciliation between warring factions.

Book Synopsis Trauma Rehabilitation After War and Conflict by : Erin Martz
Download or read book Trauma Rehabilitation After War and Conflict written by Erin Martz. This book was released on 2010-04-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As foreign assistance flows into post-conflict regions to rebuild economies, roads, and schools, it is important that development professionals retain a focus on the purely human element of rebuilding lives and societies. This book provides perspective on just how to begin that process so that the trauma people suffered is not passed on to future generations long after the violence has stopped." - Amy T. Wilson, Ph.D., Gallaudet University, Washington, DC "This ground-breaking text provides the reader with an excellent and comprehensive overview of the existing field of trauma rehabilitation. It also masterfully navigates the intricate relationships among theory, research, and practice leaving the reader with immense appreciation for its subject matter." - Hanoch Livneh, Hanoch Livneh, Ph.D., LPC, CRC, Portland State University Fear, terror, helplessness, rage: for soldier and civilian alike, the psychological costs of war are staggering. And for those traumatized by chronic armed conflict, healing, recovery, and closure can seem like impossible goals. Demonstrating wide-ranging knowledge of the vulnerabilities and resilience of war survivors, the collaborators on Trauma Rehabilitation after War and Conflict analyze successful rehabilitative processes and intervention programs in conflict-affected areas of the world. Its dual focus on individual and community healing builds on the concept of the protective "trauma membrane," a component crucial to coping and healing, to humanitarian efforts (though one which is often passed over in favor of rebuilding infrastructure), and to promoting and sustaining peace. The book’s multiple perspectives—including public health, community-based systems, and trauma-focused approaches—reflect the complex psychological, social, and emotional stresses faced by survivors, to provide authoritative information on salient topics such as: Psychological rehabilitation of U.S. veterans, non-Western ex-combatants, and civilians Forgiveness and social reconciliation after armed conflict Psychosocial adjustment in the post-war setting Helping individuals heal from war-related rape The psychological impact on prisoners of war Rehabilitating the child soldier Rehabilitation after War and Conflict lucidly sets out the terms for the next stage of humanitarian work, making it essential reading for researchers and professionals in psychology, social work, rehabilitation, counseling, and public health.
