Resumo

A intrincada relação entre psiquiatria e conflitos globais continua sendo uma área de estudo pouco explorada, porém crítica, particularmente no contexto de uma potencial Terceira Guerra Mundial. Esta revisão bibliográfica investiga as raízes psicológicas dos conflitos, examinando como as psicopatologias individuais e coletivas contribuem para a dinâmica e a escalada da guerra. Destaca os dilemas éticos enfrentados por profissionais de saúde mental ao equilibrar responsabilidades clínicas com influências geopolíticas, incluindo o uso do conhecimento psiquiátrico na guerra psicológica. A revisão também explora as implicações para a saúde mental de tensões globais prolongadas e avanços tecnológicos, como o aumento da guerra cibernética e seu impacto psicológico nas populações. Enfatizando o papel da psiquiatria na promoção da paz, este trabalho propõe estratégias inovadoras para alavancar intervenções de saúde mental a fim de mitigar conflitos e promover a resiliência em sociedades que enfrentam ameaças existenciais. Os resultados ressaltam o potencial da psiquiatria para desempenhar um papel transformador na prevenção e no gerenciamento das dimensões psicológicas de futuros conflitos globais.
