Présentation de l'éditeur : "Se préparer, organiser et optimiser la prise en charge des victimes en coordonnant l'action pluridisciplinaire des professionnels de santé (services secours et médicaux. La survenue d'un attentat terroriste, brutal, violent et imprévisible est une menace actuelle. En particulier, les attentats terroristes peuvent provoquer de nombreuses victimes à l'origine d'afflux massif sinon saturant. Aux modes opératoires très variés : explosion, arme à feu, menace nucléaire radiologique bactériologique chimique, les attaques terroristes sont à l'origine de lésions et de blessures tout aussi diverses. La prise en charge immédiate nécessite une bonne coordination des équipes médicales avec les forces d'intervention. L'organisation des secours doit permettre l'application de gestes de sauvetage essentiels pour assurer la survie des blessés. À leur accueil à l'hôpital, l'orientation des victimes suit des plans dédiés à la prise en charge de nombreuses victimes grâce à l'ensemble des équipes d'urgence, anesthésie-réanimation et chirurgicales. La stratégie de damage control s'applique comme un principe de prise en charge de sauvetage, depuis les lieux de l'attaque jusqu'au bloc opératoire. Les bilans de biologie et de radiologie suivent également un principe de prescription raisonnée et dédiée. Destiné aux médecins et aux infirmiers des équipes médicales pré-hospitalière et hospitalière, cet ouvrage se propose de présenter les particularités de la prise en charge des blessés par attentat terroriste, sur les lieux immédiats de l'attaque, puis à l'hôpital et enfin pour la prise en charge psychologique des victimes et de leur entourage"

The history of terrorism has been largely a history of perpetrators, their motives and actions. The history of their victims has always seemed to be of secondary importance. But terrorism is communication by violence, and its efficiency depends significantly on the selection and the treatment of the victims by the perpetrators, on the one hand, and the perception and acknowledgement of victimhood by the public, on the other. How does it affect our picture of the history of terrorism then, if the victims are moved centre stage? If the focus is put on their suffering, their agency, their helplessness, or on how they are acknowledged or exploited by society, politics and media? If the central role is taken into account which they play in terrorist propaganda as well as in the emotional response of the public? The contributions to this edition of the European History Yearbook will examine such questions in a broad range of historical case studies and methods, including visual history. Not least, they aim at historicizing the roles of survivors and relatives in the social process of coming to terms with terrorist violence, a question highly relevant up to the present day.

This book examines the survivors of political violence and terrorism, considering both how they have responded and how they have been responded to following critical incidents. As this work demonstrates, survivors of comparatively rare and spectacular violence hold a mirror up to society's normative assumptions around trauma, recovery, and resilience. Drawing on two years of observational field research with a British NGO who work with victims and former perpetrators of PVT, this book explores contested notions of resilience' and what it might mean for those negotiating the aftermaths of violence. Examining knowledge about resilience from a multitude of sources, including security policy, media, academic literature, and the survivors themselves, this book contends that in order to make empirical sense of resilience we must reckon with both its discursive and practical manifestations. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, victimology, criminal justice, and all those interested in the stories of survivors.

"Drawing on his extensive scholarship in the study of secular and religious traditions as well as his understanding of social, political, and anthropological theory and research, Asad questions Western assumptions regarding death and killing. He scrutinizes the idea of a "clash of civilizations," the claim that "Islamic Jihadism" is the essence of modern terror, and the arguments put forward by liberals to justify war in our time. He critically engages with a range of explanations of suicide terrorism, exploring many writers' preoccupation with the motives of perpetrators. In conclusion, Asad examines our emotional response to suicide (including suicide terrorism) and the horror it invokes."--Jacket.
