Abstract

In Europe and the U.S., awareness of interpersonal traumatization has disappeared and reappeared, seemingly connected to socio-historical conditions. The authors wanted to explore this phenomenon in Israel, a complex, multicultural, society that has yet to know peace. Content analysis of a professional journal, the Israel Journal of Psychiatry, was the method of choice. This journal has existed since the fifteenth year of Israel's existence and, because it is published in English, is in active dialogue with the rest of the world. Striking parallels were found between the timing and focus on traumas in the published articles and the socio-cultural context.
