  • Title: [Late sequelae in persecuted children].
    Author: Kestenberg JS.
    Journal: Psyche (Stuttg); 1993 Aug; 47(8):730-42. PubMed ID: 8378545.
    Abstract:
    In the first part of the article, the author describes the work of a research project that she is actively associated with ("International Study of Organized Persecution of Children") and which conducts interviews with people exposed to persecution in childhood. She then presents four cases of individuals who were persecuted as children and discusses their attempts to heal themselves of the effects of this persecution in adulthood. In Kestenberg's view, it is necessary for these early traumata to be gone over again with the victims if they are to come to terms with them. She further contends that this cannot be accomplished by one generation alone but is a task that confronts subsequent generations as well.
