Psychology and Politics Readings
Political crisis and psychological damage
$20.000
This book is the republication of a fundamental publication that circulated in a restricted and clandestine manner in the eighties. It brings together the papers presented at a seminar convened in Punta de Tralca in April 1980 by the Foundation for the Social Aid of the Christian Churches (FASIC) with the collaboration of the Vicariate of Solidarity. The purpose of that five-day meeting was to share the experiences of assistance, medical, psychological, and social work being carried out in Chile and abroad to assist victims of human rights violations.
The design of the program sought to understand the political and economic context in which victim assistance work was taking place. The institutionalization of the military regime did not suggest that the dictatorship would last for another ten years, but whatever its duration, every day there were new and growing demands for care from individuals and families suffering painful and complex situations that often exceeded the knowledge and experience of the professional teams in human rights organizations.
The first edition of this book was produced in 1982, without a publishing imprint, in Santiago, Chile, and was declared as published in Mexico by a Chilean psychosocial work collective in order to avoid censorship and reprisals.
