Abstract

Russia's ongoing issues with the understanding, acceptance, and treatment of psychological trauma are connected to the 'disappearance' of individual trauma during the Soviet Union era. The erasure of individual pain and trauma from society placed society's focus on the collective struggle and aims of the State. This disappearance is part of the zeitgeist of the USSR. This paper will provide qualitative (and supplemental quantitative) results related to the ongoing effects of collective trauma in post-Soviet society.
