Trastorno de estrés postraumático de los participantes en acciones militares

El problema de garantizar los derechos humanos

Resumen

Este artículo está dedicado al estudio al trastorno de estrés postraumático de los participantes en acciones militares, en el contexto de la protección de los derechos humanos. Los métodos utilizados en esta investigación son teóricos y empíricos, con una encuesta anónima de 212 participantes en los combates en el este de Ucrania. La atención se centra en el hecho de que este trastorno es un problema complejo, con consecuencias negativas en el campo de la sociología, criminología y los procedimientos penales, tanto como en la psicología, psiquiatría, y la medicina en general. El estudio se hace cargo de las características de este trastorno en los militares del este de Ucrania. Las conclusiones se formulan sobre los principales problemas sociales de los veteranos de guerra y sobre cómo podrían resolverse. Se ha establecido que las personas que participaron en hostilidades en el este de Ucrania tienen una serie de problemas sociales después de regresar de la zona de conflicto, por lo que se ven impedidas de ejercer plenamente sus derechos constitucionales. En el artículo se define un potencial “grupo de riesgo” entre los veteranos de guerra que tienen una mayor necesidad de patrocinio social y gubernamental. Además, se formulan propuestas específicas para minimizar las posibles consecuencias negativas de la participación en los enfrentamientos armados, así como para proteger los derechos constitucionales, establecer políticas sociales y apoyar a los veteranos de guerra.
