WORKSHOP ON CHILD ANALYSIS  The Child and Language  Catherine Vanier   Saturday, April 24, 2021 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time
From birth to death human subjects are beings of language. They are immediately taken hold of, taken up with and by the words of the Other, before they’ve even had a chance to speak themselves.
Using clinical examples we will examine how children gain access to the word, and the traumatic consequences that follow, as much in normal conditions of young children’s lives as in psychoanalytic treatments.

On Voluntary Servitude with Paola Mieli at Après-Coup
By Categories: EVENTS

Kazimir Malevich, Female Torso, 1928-9

SEMINAR: On Voluntary Servitude  with Paola Mieli    Saturday, April 17th, 2021 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM (Eastern Daylight Time)
In times like these, as new forms of totalitarianism are taking over everywhere, it’s necessary to reflect on humans’ inherent propensity to take joy in their own servitude. Returning to Freud’s and Lacan’s articulations of the subject of language and the social link, and that subject’s passion for ignorance, the seminar will explore the nature of the drive, masochism, and the ways the superego dictates the law one abides by. Psychoanalytic ethics can open a breach out of subjective servitude.
Suggested readings for April 17: Etienne de la Boétie (1530-1563), The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude; S. Freud, Group Psychology and Analysis of the Ego (1921), The Ego and the Id, Chapters III and V (1922); H. Kelsen, The Conception of the State and Social Psychology: With Special Reference to Freud’s Group Theory (1922). Continue reading On Voluntary Servitude with Paola Mieli at Après-Coup

CROWDED ROOMS, EMPTY ROOMS AND EMERGENCY ROOMS: Living in Precarious Times online with IPTAR
By Categories: EVENTS

2020/2021 CONFERENCE SERIES (VIA ZOOM): CROWDED ROOMS, EMPTY ROOMS AND EMERGENCY ROOMS Living in Precarious Times.   Wednesday April 28, 2021 — 12:00-2:00 PM – 2CE’s Dislocation of the Oppressor Within: The Unconscious Phenomenology of Race Zachary Gabriel Green, PhD

When we earnestly reflect on the challenge of addressing issues of race in psychoanalytically-informed practice, we are likely to encounter our own well-defended unconscious biases towards “the other” as well as the perilous resistance of the oppressor within ourselves to examination. This talk, based on organizational cases from contrast contexts, will explore diverse efforts by these client systems to face race. Particular focus will be given to exploration of how the phenomenology of experience contributes to ways we may promote and perpetuate systems of oppression. Implications for training and treatment will be considered.

ZACHARY GREEN, PhD is Director of Leadership Development at the Nonprofit Institute and Professor of Practice in Leadership Studies at the Continue reading CROWDED ROOMS, EMPTY ROOMS AND EMERGENCY ROOMS: Living in Precarious Times online with IPTAR
