Deconstructing Trauma

In this episode I have the pleasure of talking with psychologist
and historian Dr. Ulrich Koch from the George Washington
University School of Medicine and Health Sciences. We reflect on
the concept of psychological trauma, how it has evolved in
history, and the different ways it is understood today.  


Here are some interesting publications about the concept of
psychological trauma:  


Ulrich Koch (2021). Between Social Criticism and Epistemological
Critique: Critical Theory and the Normalization of Trauma.
