助人工作者的工作情境總是與困境中的人和群體協作，因而，探究困境之人與群體的難處成為社會工作的根本訓練，剖析困局的方法則來自於梳理小至個人、大至世界的動能流轉及現象意義。個人顯性的困境指向了來自於社會結構的隱形壓力與箝制，集體性人為暴力諸如戰爭、屠殺、殖民、遺棄；自然災害如地震、風/水災；抑或受全球化移動頻繁所致的空難、傳染疾病等，這些苦難現場皆以一個又一個受苦之人的圖像，實際承擔著社會集體的命運，並透過個人受苦經驗旭說直面受苦現場所隱含的政治、經濟、社會等施權形式。這堪稱為集體性暴力所帶來的痛苦和創傷，不僅僅深刻在受苦者的心緒和身體之中，更銘刻於群體的社會記憶裡。這門課將探索受苦之人何以受苦，透過政治、經濟、制度性權力等面向，探究因集體暴力所致的創傷經驗和痛苦失序之成因、影響和衝擊。同時，試圖理解受集體暴力所苦之人的生存樣貌，以及如何透過群體力量在受苦情境中獲得療癒。而社會工作者居其網絡之中，如何構成助人途徑和工作策略。

The work situation of helping workers always collaborates with people and groups in difficulties. Therefore, exploring the difficulties between people and groups in difficulties becomes the fundamental training of social work. The method of analyzing dilemma comes from sorting out the dynamic flow and phenomenon meanings from small individuals to large world. The personal apparent dilemma points to the invisible pressure and clamping from social structures, where collective humans are violent such as war, murder, colonization, and abandonment; natural disasters such as earthquakes, wind/water disasters; or the difficulty caused by frequent movements in globalization , infected with diseases, etc. These difficult scenes are all based on images of one suffering person after another, and actually bear the fate of the social collective, and through personal suffering experience, Xu said that he faces the forms of politics, economy, society and other powers implicated in the suffering scene. This can be called the pain and injure brought by collective violence is not only deeply embedded in the hearts and bodies of the suffering, but also in the social memory of the group. This course will explore how those suffering suffer, and explore the causes, impacts and impacts of the incisive experience and painful disorder caused by collective violence through political, economic, institutional power and other aspects. At the same time, try to understand the survival of people suffering from collective violence and how to achieve time in a situation of suffering through group power. Social workers are in their network, how to form ways to help others and work strategies.
