dc.description.abstractDecolonial perspectives of trauma eschew bio-medical models that regard trauma as a brain-related injury resulting from experiencing an out of the ordinary one-time event. Based on the influential work of Franz Fanon, a decolonial lens for understanding trauma is sociogenic in nature. A sociogenic analysis pays attention to the relationship between the individual and their environment. that s the result of prevalent in scholarly literature on trauma as particularly as they pertain to refugee newcomer populations identify three concepts as integral to an understanding of trauma: Culture, inter- generational trauma and the (colonial) nation-state.
