Collective violence changes perpetrators, victims, and societies, targetting body, psyche, and socio-cultural order. This collection by anthropologists, psychologists and psychoanalysts, draws on research in many different parts of the world, providing insights into the darker side of humanity, and proposing new ways of understanding the horrors people are capable of.

Críticas

'This book deserves to be read, not only by anthropologists and psychoanalysts, but also by every rational being ... the book manages to indicate how an interdisciplinary approach can be developed between psychoanalysis and anthropology, leading to enriched understanding of the effects of collective trauma and violence.' South African Journal of International Affairs

'... an important shared project of understanding how the trauma of social violence not only damages cultures and individuals, but is also incorporated into their self-image.' Psychotherapy and Politics International
