数千人的集体创伤发生的社会背景以及他们的康复应该取得进展的社会背景在重要方面区别于个人创伤,在个人创伤中,一个人是暴力攻击、强奸或交通事故的受害者。有组织的暴力,如战争、独裁政权的压迫和大规模的恐怖袭击,是成百上千人在短时间内遭受创伤的极端案例。因此,它有多种后果,超出了受影响的个人和他们所遭受的症状。尽管症状可能相似,但个人受害和暴露于有组织暴力的社会背景却截然不同。个体创伤幸存者和大规模创伤幸存者所处的社会环境也是不同的,对恢复产生重要影响。了解创伤的社会背景有助于为社会和个人层面的康复创造正确的社会干预。
The social contexts in which the mass trauma of thousands of people occur and in which their recovery should progress have qualities that distinguish it in important ways from individualised trauma in which a person is a victim of a violent attack, rape or a traffic accident. Organised violence, such as wars, oppression by dictatorships and massive terrorist attacks are extreme cases in which hundreds or thousands of people are exposed to trauma in a short period of time. As such, it has multiple consequences that extend beyond the affected individuals and the symptoms they suffer. Although the symptoms may be similar, the social contexts in which individual victimisation and exposure to organised violence happen are very different. The social milieu in which the survivors of individual trauma and survivors of mass trauma are embedded is likewise different, with important consequences for recovery. Understanding the social context of the trauma helps create the right social intervention for healing at social and personal levels.
