Ronald Reagans 1984 proclamation of a new "Morning in America" encoded the war as the moment of the nations fall from grace; it was the meme plagiarized by Donald Trump for his "Make America Great Again" (MAGA) slogan.</p><p>The national funk tapped for right- wing revanchism was psychologized when George H.W. Bush appropriated post- Vietnam syndrome, the diagnostic forerunner to post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), to memorialize the military accomplishments in the Persian Gulf War of 19901991we had "kicked the Vietnam Syndrome." America was a victim- nation, its trauma emblemized by PTSD-stricken veterans whose war mission had been lost on the home front, cast aside, even spat on, upon return home.</p><p>In this book we see the long historical threads woven for MAGA: the twining of traditional and modern ways of knowing that imbues war trauma with political and cultural properties that complicate its diagnostic use; the post- World War I disclosure that many shellshock patients had never been exposed to exploding shells, and the use of wounded- veteran imagery to fan the flames of German fascism; the cultural necessity of reimaging antiwar Vietnam veterans as psychiatric casualties that calls forth a new diagnostic category, PTSD; the derivatizing of PTSD for traumatic brain injury, Agent Orange, and moral injury; and the victim- veteran figure as metaphor for a wounded America, for which MAGA is the remedy.</p>...903251The Cult of the Victim-Veteran11281128https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-cult-of-the-victim-veteran/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/423615/3da76608-ae6e-42c7-ae72-ad84c66e3c6e.jpg?v=638334759717500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20239781000912470_W3siaWQiOiI4NDUzMGVkOS1iOGFiLTRkZWUtYjdhMy0wMzk2NzUxZTVjODciLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjEwOTksImRpc2NvdW50IjowLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjEwOTksImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTAxLTE2VDExOjAwOjAwWiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9XQ==9781000912470_<p>The Cult of the Victim-Veteran explores the pool of American post- Vietnam War angst that rightists began plying in the 1980s.
