IN-HOUSE – Case by Case: Psychoanalysis and the Political Discourse

IN-HOUSE – Case by Case: Psychoanalysis and the Political Discourse

What it is

This ticket is for IN-HOUSE access to this event.

This event is part of the Free Clinics Festival organised by the FREEPSY Collective: https://freepsyproject.com/fcf/

Freud’s ‘talking cure’ and its offshoots are more widespread today than ever. But as the divisive issues of our time grow more urgent, a contentious question persists: must psychoanalysis remove itself from politics altogether in order to be effective? Or is it inherently political?

Specific disagreements about how clinicians should or shouldn’t engage with imperialism, violence, race, and gender identity point to the broader question of where politics is situated in our psychic life. Is it on the periphery – a symptom or displacement – or right at the heart of the matter?
