[Study on parent-to-child transmission related to Sri Lanka's civil war]

Abstract

The dynamics of transmission between Tamil parents who fled the civil war in Sri Lanka and their children born in France were studied. The possible trauma that results from the transmission can affect the following generations in a more or less conscious way. The qualitative methodology was based on T-MADE, a method of transcultural analysis of the children's drawings, linked to the analysis of the parents' narrative.

Keywords: Sri Lanka; T-MADE; guerre; transcultural; transculturel; transmission; trauma; traumatisme; war.
