It has its origins in an interdisciplinary symposium at the University of Newcastle in May 2017, convened by the Centre for the History of Violence to coincide with the visit of Professor Mark S. Micale from the University of Illinois. The author and editor of several key works examining the history of trauma and related concepts, Micale had recently argued that the spread of the idea of trauma and its associated literatures 'registers a deepening understanding of the essential fragility of the human psyche' and that one key challenge for scholars grappling with the concept is to eschew 'a single, undirectional narrative of trauma that culminates logically in present-day medical science' in favour of 'multiple, context-dependent histories'. The symposium brought together scholars and practitioners in the humanities, social sciences, and medical sciences to test this proposition in the case of Australia and the new region. The articles and interviews in this special issue expand on the discussions from that day, which were framed by questions both broad and more constrained. What do we mean when we speak about 'trauma'? How does this differ between disciplines? What is the relationship between theory and clinical practice? How has trauma and its analogues been understood in the Australian past? How is trauma understood in the Australian present?]]> Thu 25 Jul 2019 09:25:04 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35368 Health and History in the light of what we see as a current rupture inside histories of mental health and psychiatry, one that is shared with the challenge of social work and practice. This rupture is caused by the 'still-present' memories of institutional trauma, and the effect that has on the writing of histories of psychiatry. Such trauma also shapes the everyday practice of social work. Institutional trauma in the case of social work might refer to forms of interaction with the institutions of welfare, law, medicine, education, and religion, that can render clients powerless. Dynamics of privacy, power, and control that characterise these institutional settings can create climates conducive to manipulation and maltreatment that is more severe, more frequent and more likely to occur over longer periods of time, all factors known to be associated with pervasive adverse impacts and outcomes for survivors. The lived realities of institutional abuse means that impacts can extend to families, loved ones, and the wider community-constituting intergenerational and shared or collective trauma. The focus of our reflection is on how we might build a methodology around researching traumatic memory in practice, and in the present. This work would start to work towards what editor of this Special Issue Elizabeth Roberts-Pedersen argues is a key element of contemporary trauma studies: theorising the relationship between theory and practice, both within and across disciplines.]]> Thu 25 Jul 2019 09:20:33 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55035 Thu 04 Apr 2024 11:11:07 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8331 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:58 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8155 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:06 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:939 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:29:59 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10512 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:59 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10132 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:42 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10240 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:09 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23026 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:47 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50615 Mon 31 Jul 2023 14:21:57 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34263 Mon 25 Feb 2019 11:39:21 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53279 Mon 20 Nov 2023 13:09:51 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53266 Mon 20 Nov 2023 12:34:56 AEDT ]]>
