Résumé ou extrait
- "In this book we see the long historical threads woven for MAGA: the twining of traditional and modern ways of knowing that imbues war trauma with political and cultural properties that complicate its diagnostic use; the post-WWI disclosure that many Shell Shock patients had never been exposed to exploding shells, and the use of wounded-veteran imagery to fan the flames of German fascism; the cultural necessity of reimaging antiwar Vietnam veterans as psychiatric casualties that calls forth a new diagnostic category, PTSD; the derivatizing of PTSD for TBI, Agent Orange, and Moral Injury; and the victim-veteran figure as metaphor for a wounded America, for which MAGA is the remedy."
