Trauma and Forgiveness: Consequences and Communities

C. Fred Alford argues that the traumatized are generally capable of representing their experience. Using evidence from the testimonies of Holocaust survivors, as well as the victims of 'ordinary' trauma, he shows that forgiveness is generally a way of avoiding the hurt and pain of coming to terms with trauma.
