        In 1945 moest Europa in het reine zien te komen met de verwoestende gevolgen van de oorlog. Miljoenen hadden het leven gelaten. Anderen waren ziek, uitgehongerd of getraumatiseerd door hun kamp- of onderduikervaringen, of door belevenissen in gevechten en bombardementen. Vandaag zouden we die slachtoffers tegemoet treden met een legertje traumapsychologen, maar in 1945 was het begrip posttraumatische stress nog onbekend. Hoe keken de slachtoffers zelf naar hun gezondheid? En hoe benaderden de medische professionals de problematiek? Welke financiële ondersteuning werd er geboden? En wie kwamen daarvoor in aanmerking? The Politics of War Trauma vergelijkt attitudes en overheidsbeleid met betrekking tot de gezondheidseffecten van de Tweede Wereldoorlog in elf Europese landen. Uit de studie komen opvallende verschillen naar voren in de manier waarop deze landen omgingen met eventuele medisch-psychologische problemen van overlevenden. Het boek legt een verrassend en vernieuwend interdisciplinair verband tussen de aspecten van de nasleep van de oorlog. Het analyseert de veranderingen in het medisch en psychologisch denken over oorlog en gezondheid tegen de politieke en landspecifieke achtergronden van Koude Oorlog, welvaartsstaatontwikkeling, collectieve herinnering en psychiatrische zorg
