Abstract

Using collaborative research methods with local organisations, this study analyses collective trauma in Colombia’s Pacific coast. It examines ethnoterritorial groups, or collectivities whose identities and political organising reflect a distinct territorial consciousness characterised by intercultural, environmental and socio-economic relationships to land. ‘Peer interviewers’ adapted research instruments and ethics to their communities, highlighting oral testimonies and the collective construction of knowledge. They connected emotionally and intellectually with their people revealing key information about harmful events undermining the life-worlds of their communities. Building on this work, the article breaks the trauma process into different phases starting with traumatogenic events that cause communal distress and produce a social and signification crisis. It claims that territories represent a form of knowledge and produce feedback effects in the trauma process that help people connect emotionally and strategically with place. The article concludes that harmful events are not the same as collective trauma. Collective trauma is constructed in a process of signification that uncovers and interprets a negative collective impact and delimits the group of sufferers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
