Routledge A Psychoanalytic And Socio-Cultural Exploration Of A Continent Europe On The Couch | Mental Health
Product Description
This important book gathers a set of influential international contributors with psychoanalytic and group analytic knowledge to provide a wide-ranging critical analysis of the present state of Europe. Europe is facing huge challenges: waves of immigrants are reshaping its identity and testing its tolerance; Brexit is a destabilizing factor and its outcomes are not yet clear; economic crises continue to threaten; the resurgence of nationalism is threatening an open-borders one-continent ideology. This book tackles some of these challenges. Divided into two parts the first analyses the current social political cultural and economic trends in Europe using psychoanalytic and group analytic concepts while the second concentrates on existing applications of psychoanalytic and group analytic concepts to help manage national and international change in individual countries as well as on the continent as a whole including groups for German Ukrainian and Russian participants; groups organised in Serbia in order to overcome the recent traumatic past; and the Sandwich model developed to enhance communication in situations of conflict trauma and blocked communication. When we feel threatened we cling to our in-group and its members. We want to think the same and be the same as our neighbors but this group illusion of homogeneity conceals the fact that we are different. While homogeneity offers stability it is diversity that offers freedom. This book will be of great interest to researchers on the present state of Europe from across a range of different disciplines from psychoanalysis to politics sociology economics and international relations. |A Psychoanalytic and Socio-Cultural Exploration of a Continent Europe on the Couch | Mental Health
