Synopsis
The main focal point of this book is the destructive effects of repressive political systems on the human mind, and the disruption of family life and social relations. The book is based on clinical experience with individual victims of political repression and on analyses of oppressive regimes, from Nazism to the present day. A macropolitical perspective is drawn by reflecting on fundamentalism and analyzing religion in a human rights context. In addition, an overview of the new "waves of democracy" is given. Justice, revenge and reconciliation are key words to the last part of the book, where problems of impunity and of peace and reconciliation are discussed, presenting examples from Latin America and the former East Germany.
