**2.3 COVID-19 impact**

According to the March 2021 news in New York Times, the increase of existential questioning with the effect of social trauma globally draw our attention, particularly to the establishment of "Ministries of Loneliness" in England and Japan and on the search for solutions to suicide epidemics. The Ministry of Loneliness has an important mission as the existential needs of individual members of society have to be truly met by the systems. They can open new ways for the people who face trauma and allow them truly benefit from the effects of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. The existence of the ministry is highly significant, particularly in the case of the suicide epidemic. It can prevent suicidal people's feeling isolated and self-destructive action.

For this reason, studies on reorganizing the meaning of life and lifestyle have increased with the effect of social trauma. In a similar vein, Üsküdar University Senate reflected their studies and published a manifesto on Earth Day on April 22, 2021, to increase the resistance of world societies to trauma after the Pandemic and lead life toward the better tried to announce it globally. Üsküdar University here aims to help people who had a traumatic experience on a wider scale.

#### **2.4 Can trauma have sociopolitical consequences?**

After the cold war, the world became unipolar. As a result, global trends toward social justice have declined. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid the emergence of a new wealth hostility and to minimize opportunity and income inequality. For this reason, it is the right place to commemorate Marx and Engels together and talk about that extraordinary passage from the Communist Manifesto:

"Wherever the bourgeoisie has taken over, it has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, rural relations. It has ruthlessly cut off the tangled feudal ties that bind man to his 'natural superiors,' leaving no other bond between man and man than pure self-interest, solid 'cash payment.' It has drowned the divine ecstasy of religious bigotry, the chivalric spirit, and petty-bourgeois sentimentality in the icy waters of selfish calculation. He has transformed personal dignity into exchange value and has replaced the innumerable freedoms so hard-won with that single, ruthless freedom, the freedom to trade. In short, it has replaced the exploitation of hidden religious and political illusions with open, indecent, direct, and brutal exploitation."

What will close that trauma bracket is obvious—the struggle of the poor/ oppressed for liberation, equality, and freedom. Since the oppressed/poor are naked, all organizations and ties have collapsed, they are alone and helpless; since there is no light left for their hope, all ears to hear their voices are deaf [3].
