Persecution Trauma and the Reconditioning of Emotional Life: A Brief Survey
Abstract
This brief survey is intended to outline the types of persecution trauma commonly seen among the survivors of Nazi concentration camps. Many psychiatric evaluations of these victims for purposes of compensation under the German law of restitution are, the author feels, cursory, unrealistically limited, and biased in favor of a narrow etiological view. He offers specific guidelines to aid future examiners in their psychiatric evaluations.
