Peacemakers dealing with violent conflicts are often exposed to stressors that are detrimental to the peacemaking process. Such stressors hinder performance and challenge the peacemakers' professional identity and identifications, both consciously and unconsciously. Moreover, peacemakers may risk contamination by the “radioactive,” traumatic elements of the violence inherent in the bellicose situations they deal with at the peace table. They may become “crypt carriers” of expulsed mourning and denied lost objects. In this study, I elaborate on whether a group psychoanalytic approach to analyzing peacemakers' practice can offer mediators the space to explore, elaborate on, and symbolize the unconscious dynamics underlying their practice. Having such a space can help them perform the psychic “work of trauma,” and shield or decontaminate them and their practice from the “radioactive” effect of the potentially traumatic elements of their profession. Such an approach can provide peacemakers with a complementary tool for developing their practice.

分析调解人实践的群体精神分析方法

处理暴力冲突的和平缔造者经常面临不利于缔造和平进程的压力。这种压力源会有意无意地阻碍绩效并挑战和平缔造者的职业身份和认同。此外，和平缔造者可能会冒着被他们在和平谈判桌上处理的好战局势中固有的暴力的“放射性”创伤性因素污染的风险。他们可能成为被驱逐的哀悼和否认丢失物品的“地穴携带者”。在这项研究中，我详细阐述了分析调解人实践的群体精神分析方法是否可以为调解者提供探索、阐述和象征其实践背后的无意识动力的空间。拥有这样的空间可以帮助他们进行心理上的“创伤工作，”并保护或净化他们和他们的实践，使其免受其职业中潜在创伤因素的“放射性”影响。这种方法可以为和平缔造者提供一个补充工具来发展他们的实践。
