Fanon et les traumatismes migratoires : Une actualisation postcoloniale de la névrose coloniale

This article offers a critical and updated reinterpretation of Frantz Fanon’s concept of “colonial neurosis,” applying it to the psychological traumas experienced by migrants from former African colonies. At the intersection of psychoanalysis, transcultural psychiatry, postcolonial theory, and diasporic literature, the study explores the structural, clinical, and symbolic dimensions of colonial trauma and its contemporary afterlives in migratory contexts. Drawing on Fanon's seminal texts and a broad interdisciplinary corpus, the article highlights the enduring impact of colonial domination on racialized subjectivities, while examining how resistance, resilience, and identity reconstruction emerge in postcolonial settings. This approach challenges individualizing and Eurocentric trauma models, proposing instead a framework that considers trauma as a historical, embodied, and political phenomenon. Keywords : Frantz Fanon, colonial neurosis, postcolonial migration, psychological trauma, alienation, resilience, racialized body, diasporic literature.
