Originally presented at the Journal's one day conference entitled 'Displacement: Contemporary Traumatic Experience' held in London in November 2019, this paper expands on the author's theory of the implicit psychological organizing gestalt, an associated pattern of psychic functions which operate in an integrated way to simultaneously structure and organize our experience of self-cohesion and self-continuity. The gestalt, which implicitly links the formation of psychic skin, body image, cultural skin and both personal and cultural identity with place, functions as an emergent non-conscious permanent presence or background 'constant'. It develops over time and emerges out of embodied emotional experiencing with the total environment - both human and non-human. The author argues that it is the rupture of this gestalt and the disorganizing consequences of its loss which underlies the experience of displacement trauma. If disruptions in the formation of the gestalt and/or its later rupture remain unrecognized and unrepresented then the absence creates a void which can be intergenerationally transmitted. Case material is presented which describes this and which highlights the ways in which the gestalt can contribute to our understanding of collective displacement anxiety, cultural trauma and cultural complexes.

流离失所创伤：个人、集体和代际分裂的复杂状态及其代际传递

该论文最初发表在 2019 年 11 月在伦敦举行的名为“位移：当代创伤体验”的该杂志为期一天的会议上，该论文扩展了作者的内隐心理组织格式塔理论，这是一种相关的心理功能模式，以综合方式运作同时构建和组织我们的自我凝聚力和自我连续性的经验。格式塔隐含地将精神皮肤、身体形象、文化皮肤以及个人和文化身份的形成与地方联系起来，作为一种突现的无意识永久存在或背景“常数”。它随着时间的推移而发展，并从对整个环境（人类和非人类）的具身情感体验中出现。作者认为，正是这种完形的破裂和它的丧失所带来的混乱后果，是位移创伤经历的基础。如果格式塔形成中的中断和/或其后来的破裂仍未得到承认和代表，则这种缺失会产生可以代际传递的空虚。案例材料描述了这一点，并强调了格式塔可以帮助我们理解集体流离失所焦虑、文化创伤和文化情结的方式。
