The Bodily Unconscious in Psychoanalytic Technique explores how corporeality and body memory can be more strongly integrated into psychoanalytic work. This book brings together an international range of contributors to consider the bodily unconscious from different theoretical perspectives. Concepts from the work of Freud, Bion, Winnicott, Lacan, Laplanche, and Fonagy are developed with the aim of incorporating body memory into psychoanalytic technique. The contributors consider how severe and complex clinical states, dominated by bodily symptoms and disorganization, can be approached with methods that go beyond classical interpretation. The book includes ten case histories and discussion of key themes including transference and countertransference, feelings of corporeality and bodily sensations, and features clinical material throughout. The Bodily Unconscious in Psychoanalytic Technique will be essential reading for psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists in practice and training, particularly those interested in somatic approaches.
Presented in five parts, this comprehensive collection offers an in-depth understanding of the core competencies in Jungian psychoanalysis. It is aligned with the main task of analytical training and practice—that of integrating the unconscious aspects of experience and developing a living relationship with it—and defines a set of key resources and skills for recognizing the emergence of the unconscious and its multiple manifestations, while offering ways to relate to it that fit individual clients and encourage growth and healing. Featuring contributions from renowned Jungian analysts from across the globe, the book sheds light on how Jungians integrate common therapeutic methods in their practices and how they utilize others that are unique to their personal experiences, making the book an essential read for Jungian professionals, trainees, and students.
Examines the global regulation of biodiversity politics through international treaties; assessing how the discourse and politics of sustainable development have contributed to the internationalization of the state.
Children are born into a social context that is not of their choosing. From early childhood, this context is made up of diverse group experiences that play a crucial role in shaping a person's social life and desire to learn. This makes the group context an ideal setting for therapeutic and educational work, especially with children and adolescents. This volume offers numerous practical suggestions for using the group as a helpful and supportive medium, e.g., in parent-infant/toddler groups, parent/caregiver groups, groups with children or adolescents, and in preventive group work in schools. The contributions provide insights into the diversity and complexity of conceptual, group analytic w...

The XXI International Congress for Analytical Psychology was held in Vienna, the birthplace of psychoanalysis. It brought together an unprecedented number of participants from all over the world and from different fields of knowledge. The theme: Encountering the Other: Within us, between us and in the world, a most relevant and urgent topic of the contemporary discourse among clinicians and academics alike, was explored in a rich and diverse program of pre-congress workshops, master classes, plenary and breakout presentations and posters. The Proceedings are published as two volumes: a printed edition of the plenary presentations, and an e-Book with the complete material presented at the Con...
Commodified Bodies examines the social practice of organ transplantation and trafficking and scrutinises the increasingly neoliberal tendencies in the medical system. It analyses phenomena such as the denomination of human body parts as "raw materials" and "commodities," or the arguments used by the proponents for a free market solution. Moreover, it argues that modern medicine is still linked with its religious roots. The commodification of body parts is seen not as an imperialistic act of the market, but as the end of a historical process as the notion of "fetishism" links the market with the body. Marx’s concept of commodity fetishism and Sigmund Freud’s theory of the perverted use of objects are modified and adapted to the reconstruction of the joint beginnings of market and medicine.
Peacebuilding and reconciliation between groups and entire nations that share a violent past are among the toughest, yet most important, challenges for modern societies. Opposing perspectives, disagreements about the interpretation of historical events or even entirely different narratives too often impede processes of rapprochement. How can teaching history contribute to overcoming the demarcation lines of such narratives and resolving historical conflicts that are passed on from generation to generation or renewed, amplified and exploited for present political purposes? This volume comprises twelve case studies—from Central and Eastern Europe to South Africa, from the Middle East to East Asia—exploring stories about successes and failures in the never-ending struggle for peaceful coexistence. All of them ultimately reflect the fundamental question of our discipline: Can we learn from history?
Sowohl in Theorie und Forschung als auch in der erzieherischen Alltagspraxis herrscht die Blickrichtung der Erwachsenen auf das Kind vor. In radikaler Umkehr dessen interessiert sich dieser Band für die Kinderperspektive. Bis dato wurde in der Forschung der Blick von Kindern auf ihre Eltern kaum berücksichtigt. Diese vorherrschende Herangehensweise wird nun auf den Kopf gestellt: Nicht Erwachsene geben Auskunft darüber, wie sie das Kind und ihre Beziehung zu ihm erleben. Vielmehr geht es um die Art und Weise, wie das Kind Vater und Mutter und seine Beziehung zu ihnen erlebt. Die empirisch-sozialwissenschaftlichen Studien, aber auch berufspraktischen Beiträge spannen einen weiten Bogen inhaltlicher Dimensionen, des Alters und Geschlechts der Kinder, der direkten oder indirekten Zugangsweisen zur Kinderwahrnehmung.
