Rejecting the concept of PTSD, Matthies-Boon develops an alternate theory of trauma using the Egyptian revolution as a case. The testimonies of Cairene activists explain how multileveled traumatic status subordination inflicted on them destroyed the potentiality of revolutionary collective becoming, resulting in demoralized, depoliticized silence.

Vivienne Matthies-Boon is Assistant Professor of the International Relations of the Middle East in the Department of Political Science, University of Amsterdam. She was an Assistant Professor in International Relations at the University of Groningen, an Assistant Professor in Sociology at the University of Surrey in the UK and a Duncan Norman Research Scholar at the University of Liverpool in the UK. She has an interdisciplinary background that is rooted in Philosophy, Sociology, Politics, Middle Eastern Studies, and Psychology. Being a critical theorist by heart and training, her main aim in her work is to explore greater existential questions related to notions of 'humanness', 'being' and 'suffering' within cross-cultural settings that are dominated by violence and conflict, with the hope of alleviating suffering, enabling understanding and seeking transformation of both self and others.
