Our geography is facing ongoing traumatic events which have influences on a social/collective level. Coups, systematic torture, gross violations of human rights, bomb attacks which has drastically increased in the latest years, armed conflict which has been going on for decades, forced immigrations, political oppression and state violence, etc. Unfortunately, these events have been increasing. In this context, we came up with the idea of possible interviews with psychoanalysts that work on this area. Questions are on how to psychoanalytically approach and understand “extraordinary” events and traumatic experiences that has an influence on a societal level. We prepared some questions to have a wider view on psychoanalytical perspectives on social/collective trauma with the hope of facilitating further discussion.
