Psychoanalysis and Politics
Psychoanalysis and Politics is a conference series, founded by the philosopher Lene Auestad in 2010.[1]
Aims
It aims to address how contemporary political issues may be analyzed through psychoanalytic theory and vice versa – how political phenomena may reflect back on psychoanalytic thinking.[2] The series is international and interdisciplinary.[3]
Engaged with "socially produced suffering on micro and macro scales, with otherness, as well as processes of othering", the series is influenced by traditions in phenomenology, critical theory and post-structuralism as well as by a range of psychoanalytic thinkers.[4]
History
Since the first conference in Copenhagen in 2010, three-day symposia have been held each spring in Oslo, Stockholm, London, Helsinki, Budapest Barcelona and Vienna,[5] with 2017's conference planned for Paris.[6]
