The effects of genocide on youth include psychological and demographic effects that impact the transition into adulthood. These effects are also seen in future generations of youth. Demographic effects involve the transfer of children during genocides. These children are moved from their homes and into other areas. This causes there to be significant shifts in populations within the countries that experience these genocides. Often, these children are then stripped of their cultural identity and assimilated into the culture that they have been placed in to. Unresolved trauma of genocide has an impact on future generations of youth. It is important to look at these intergenerational effects in order to understand the background of these children and analyze how these experiences shape their futures. These impacts include the atmosphere of the household they grew up in, pressures to succeed or act in specific ways, and how they view the world in which they live. Psychological effects of genocide are also relevant in youth. These youth who experience an extreme trauma at an early age are often incapable of fully understanding the event that took place. Therefore, as this generation of children transition into adulthood, they try to sort out the event and recognize the psychological effects of the genocide. It is typical for these young survivors to experience symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as well as other psychological disorders. Transitioning out of youth and into adulthood is an important development marker in the lives of all people. Youth who transition into adulthood during a genocide have a different experience than those who do not transition during a genocide. Some transition earlier as means of survival. Others are unable to fully transition, remaining in a youth state longer than others. ==Armenian genocide== The Armenian genocide began in 1915 when the Turkish government planned to wipe out Armenians living in the Ottoman Empire. About 2 million Armenians were killed and many more were removed from the country by force. However, the Turkish government does not acknowledge the events of the Armenian genocide as genocide. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Effects of genocide on youth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
