Victimisation trauma and during the generations: a few thoughts from a case expert

Abstract

The victimology, over time, has studied increasingly different mechanisms of victimization. Taking inspiration from an expert case, it reflects on the concept of trans-generational trauma, because it can take on a particular value in the field of victimology. Indeed, the transmission between the different generations of psychological experiences of traumatic type may explain both the negative effects of these on the formation and functioning of the personal identity of individuals of different generations as well as their future predisposition to become victims or to the victims, for failure or insufficient processing of these experiences. In this regard, we will examine the concepts of projective identification, asymmetry coercive, telescope inter-generational, narcissistic contract, agreement that denies a reality, events that kill the symbol and incestual. Next, we take into account the possible intervention strategies evolutionary risks of such situations. Intact, to understand the way in which the passing from one generation to another some experience, never processed in the course of time at the mental level, makes it possible to prevent the repetition of the trauma by the subject, or as a victim, or as executioner. In this perspective, if every crime can be a trauma, not all trauma confer susceptibility to crime. Trauma can create the victims or perpetrators only if and when they are never placed in a different world view and life.
