{"product_id":"cultural-trauma-and-collective-identity-9780520235953","title":"Cultural Trauma and Collective Identity","description":"In this collaboratively authored work, five distinguished sociologists develop an ambitious theoretical model of \"cultural trauma\"-and on this basis build a new understanding of how social groups interact with emotion to create new and binding understandings of social responsibility. Looking at the \"meaning making process\" as an open-ended social dialogue in which strikingly different social narratives vie for influence, they outline a strongly constructivist approach to trauma and apply this theoretical model in a series of extensive case studies, including the Nazi Holocaust, slavery in the United States, and September 11, 2001.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1253531\"\u003eJeffrey C.
