Abstract

The environment, both physical and emotional, within which we all live, work, love and hate, is increasingly disturbing, if not unbearably undoing. The relentlessness of the Covid 19 pandemic, the ongoing nuclear threat and catastrophic horror generated by the war in Ukraine, and the evermore urgent climate crisis with which we are all faced, produces states of mind within us all that are often terrifying. To be able to feel and think in such circumstances is perhaps an impossible challenge, and yet an absolutely necessary one for us all to face, if we are to act with wisdom, courage and care, in the face of these multiple and unavoidable terrors. In these very difficult circumstances, does psychotherapy and its accumulated wisdom have anything to offer? We suggest it does.

社论

我们生活、工作、爱和恨的环境，无论是身体上的还是情感上的，即使不是令人难以忍受的破坏，也越来越令人不安。新冠肺炎疫情的无情、乌克兰战争造成的持续核威胁和灾难性恐怖，以及我们都面临的日益紧迫的气候危机，在我们所有人心中产生了往往令人恐惧的心理状态。在这种情况下能够感受和思考可能是一个不可能的挑战，但如果我们要以智慧、勇气和关怀的态度面对这些多重且不可避免的恐怖，这对我们所有人来说都是一个绝对必要的挑战。在这种非常困难的情况下，心理治疗及其积累的智慧能提供什么吗？我们建议这样做。

期刊介绍： Applied Theatre Research is the worldwide journal for theatre and drama in non-traditional contexts. It focuses on drama, theatre and performance with specific audiences or participants in a range of social contexts and locations. Contexts include education, developing countries, business and industry, political debate and social action, with children and young people, and in the past, present or future; locations include theatre which happens in places such as streets, conferences, war zones, refugee camps, prisons, hospitals and village squares as well as on purpose-built stages. The primary audience consists of practitioners and scholars of drama, theatre and allied arts, as well as educationists, teachers, social workers and community leaders with an awareness of the significance of theatre and drama, and an interest in innovative and holistic approaches to theatrical and dramatic production, learning and community development. Contributors include eminent and experienced workers and scholars in the field, but cutting-edge contemporary and experimental work from new or little-known practitioners is also encouraged. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal has a global focus and representation, with an explicit policy of ensuring that the best and most exciting work in all continents and as many countries as possible is represented and featured. Cultural, geographical, gender and socio-economic equity are recognised where possible, including in the Review Board.
