Page "Collective trauma" Paragraph 11

Inculcation of horror and anxiety, through widespread torture, massacre, genocide and similar coercive measures has happened frequently in human history.

There are plenty of examples in our modern history.

Tyrants have always used their technique of “ psychological artillery ” in an attempt to cause havoc and confusion in the minds of people and hypnotize them with intimidation and cynicism.

The result is a collective trauma that will pass through generations.

There is no magic formula of rehabilitation.

Collective trauma can be alleviated through cohesive and collective efforts such as recognition, remembrance, solidarity, communal therapy and massive cooperation.
