Institutional Trauma

A Critical Psychological Perspective on Power, Violence, and Harm

Beschreibung

This book develops a comprehensive psychological account of trauma as an institutional phenomenon, which is currently missing in psychological discourse.

Autor

Lucy Thompson is a critical feminist psychologist who studies institutional power relations and their impacts from the perspective that the personal is political. From this perspective, she specializes in feminist analyses of institutions, violence, and psychological distress. Her research has made methodological, empirical, and conceptual contributions in these areas. Specifically, she has published an analytical framework, Feminist Relational Discourse Analysis, which allows critical examinations of the personal-political dimensions of experience. She has also studied institutional phenomena such as imposter syndrome and workplace violence from this perspective. Her conceptual work in the domain of institutional trauma reflects her commitment to understanding experiences of psychological distress as institutionally bound.
