Many thanks to the entire BPSI community for their warm welcome, and especially to Bonnie Smolen and Dawn Skorczewski for generous support and encouragement; Jack Beinashowitz, Martha Fisch, Cary Freidman, Richard Gomberg, Dan Mollod, Harry Penn, and Sharon Roberts for allow- ing me to attend their classes for analytic candidates; Joel Whitebook for insightful and challenging comments on my !"$" Silberger Lecture; and Crystal Feimster for her friendship and camaraderie. Originally, I planned to write a very di%erent book, one that would argue that the future of critical theory depended on a return to the insights of the early Frankfurt School, in particular the interrelated Freudian and Nietzs- chean critiques of the rational ego and of historical progress found in Adorno and Horkheimer’s Dialectic of Enlightenment. A&er several years of work, I realized that the scope and ambition of such a project might well defeat me, and that even if I were to succeed in 'nishing such a book, it would be much longer than anyone might be willing to publish, let alone read. So, I decided to split the project into two books, one focusing on ques- tions of history and progress, and the second concentrating on the recep- tion of psychoanalysis in critical theory.

In addition, I am grateful to audiences and organizers of a variety of con- ferences, lectures, and other venues where material for this book was pre- sented over the last decade, including the following: the Colloquium on Phi- losophy and the Social Sciences in Prague, the Goethe University in Frankfurt, the Psychoanalysis Study Group at Dartmouth College, the Psychoanalysis and Critical (eory Workshop at the New School for Social Research, the Australasian Society for Continental Philosophy, the Princeton Political (eory Graduate Student Conference, the Villanova Philosophy Graduate Student Conference, the Department of Philosophy at Concordia University, the Society for Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy, the Oakley Center for the Humanities at Williams College, the Institute for Philosophy at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana in Mexico City, the Center for Contemporary Critical (ought at Columbia University, the Foley Institute for Public A%airs at Washington State Uni- versity, the Critical (eory Roundtable, and the Centre Marc Bloch in Berlin.

To Mari, who has forgot- ten more about Lacan than I will ever know, I fear my debt is unpayable.

CRITIQUE ON THE COUCH Introduction Why Critical Theory Needs Psychoanalysis (Now More Than Ever) heodor Adorno’s famous claim that “in psycho- analysis nothing is true except the exaggerations” is, to be sure, itself an exaggeration.! T And yet it captures something important about the "rst generation of the Frankfurt School’s approach to psychoanalysis, an approach that has been decisively rejected by at least the most prominent members of the sec- ond and third generations. Indeed, perhaps more than anything else the early Frankfurt School was de"ned both theoretically and institutionally by its attempt to bring Marxism and Freudian psychoanalysis together in the service of a critical theory of advanced capitalist societies.# Such a the- oretical fusion was deemed necessary to enable critical theory to come to terms with the failure of communist revolutions in Europe, the rise of fas- cism, and the horrors of the Holocaust— in short, the descent of the cul- ture of enlightenment into barbarism. Perhaps the greatest exaggeration of Freudian psychoanalysis— the height of its speculative excess— is the theory of the drives, particularly Freud’s late conception of the fundamental antagonism between life and death drives, Eros and $anatos. For early critical theorists, including Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Herbert Marcuse, even this exaggeration contained an important grain of truth. As Martin Jay argues in his classic study of the early Frankfurt School, !e Dialectical

In addition to posing a physical threat to human and non-human existence, the climate emergency also poses a conceptual and an ontological challenge. Therefore, this thesis focuses on the institutionalized and globalized ontological assumptions (or imaginaries) at the core of the current world-system (/ecology) characterized by capitalism. One of the main arguments in this thesis is that the perpetuation of the core imaginaries (namely those of Society and Nature’s dualism, mechanistic image of the world and hierarchical existence) at the root of current global structures, as well as the international climate responses, has led to inadequate and misinformed responses to the emergency.

The track, and its accompanying video, gives fans a taste of what’s to come off the forthcoming record – listen HERE. ​ ​ ​ “Open My Mouth,” co-written by Kiiara, Amy Allen (Halsey’s “Without Me”, Selena Gomez’s “Back To You”), Scott Harris (Shawn Mendes’ “Treat You Better” and “There’s Nothin’ Holding Me Back”), Ian Kirkpatrick (Dua Lipa’s “New Rules”, Julia Michaels’ EP), and Joe London (Pitbull, Jason Derulo, Fifth Harmony) showcases Kiiara’s unique ability to blur the lines between genres with her signature vocals and honest lyrics. “Art is open for interpretation, so while some will listen to this song and relate to it based on relationships they’ve had in their lives, for me this song is about the relationship I have with myself,” Kiiara says of the new track. “I’ve struggled with mental health issues for my entire life. I’ve felt silenced, I’ve felt alone, and I’ve felt afraid. To me, this song is about facing these realities and putting it all out there. It feels empowering to open up and finally speak my truth, and I hope in doing so I can encourage others to let their guard down and do the same, so they don’t feel so alone and helpless.” The accompanying music video, directed by Juliana Carpino, features designer Christian Cowan and fashion from his FW19 line along with a special cameo appearance from Austin Mahone – watch HERE.

  • Intrapsychic Perspectives on Personality
    PSYCHODYNAMIC PERSPECTIVES ON PERSONALITY This educational CAPPE module is part i in section III: Theories of Human Functioning and Spirituality Written by Peter L. VanKatwyk, Ph.D. Introduction Psychodynamic theory goes back more than 100 years and has been a principal influence in the early history of clinical pastoral education (CPE). It is a way of thinking about personality dynamics in interpreting and understanding both the spiritual care-provider and care-receiver. This module will briefly summarize the basic theory and punctuate psychodynamic concepts that have been significant in the study of psychology of religion and theological reflection in the practice of spiritual care and counselling. Psychodynamic theories presently practiced include in historical sequence the following three schools that will be covered in this module: 1. Ego Psychology, following and extending the classic psychoanalytic theory of Freud, with major representatives in Anna Freud, Heinz Hartmann and Erik Erikson. 2. Object Relations Theory, derived from the work of Melanie Klein and members of the “British School,” including those who are prominent in religious studies and the practice of spiritual care: Ronald Fairbairn, Harry Guntrip, and D.W. Winnicott. 3. Self Psychology, modifying psychoanalytic theory with an interpersonal relations focus, originating in Heinz Kohut, systematized and applied for social work and counselling practice by Miriam Elson. In conjunction these psychodynamic theories offer three main perspectives on personality: 1. the human mind harbors conflict – with powerful unconscious forces that are continually thwarted in expressing themselves by a broad range of counteracting psychological processes and defense mechanisms. 2. each person carries an unconscious internalized world of personal relationships – with mental representations that reflect earlier experiences of self and others which often surface as patterns in current relationships and interpersonal problems.

    Decolonizing Ethics Penn State Series in Critical Theory Eduardo Mendieta, General Editor The Penn State Series in Critical Theory showcases the work of contemporary critical theorists who are building upon and expanding the canon of the Frankfurt School. Based on a series of symposia held at Penn State University, each volume in the series contains an original essay by an internationally renowned critical theorist, followed by a set of critical essays from a number of authors as well as the theorist’s response to these essays. Books in the series will focus especially on topics that have been previously neglected by the Frankfurt tradition, including colonialism and imperialism, racism, sexism, and ethnocentrism.

  • Introduction: Trauma, Psychoanalysis, Literary Form
    Notes Introduction: Trauma, Psychoanalysis, Literary Form 1. For a historical genealogy of trauma, see Leys, 2000; Luckhurst, 2008: Part I. 2. Psychoanalysis has deeply informed our understanding of trauma, particu- larly in the Humanities (see, for instance, Felman and Laub, 1992; Caruth, 1995c; 1996; Leys, 2000; Garland, 2002d; Ball, 2007b), and several critics (including Stonebridge, 1998; Jacobus, 1999; Schwab, 2001; Jacobus, 2005; Moran, 2007; Radstone, 2007a; b) have turned specifically to British object relations theory when writing about the relationship between trauma or violence and literature. Nevertheless, important aspects of this strand of psychoanalysis have not yet been comprehensively explored regarding their usefulness for a literary aesthetics of trauma. 3. While PTSD is central to contemporary understandings of trauma (includ- ing mine), especially in the Humanities, Ruth Leys points to The Harmony of Illusions: Inventing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (1995) by anthropologist Allan Young, which postulates that, in Leys’s words, ‘far from being a timeless entity […] PTSD is a historical construct that has been “glued together by the practices, technologies, and narratives with which it is diagnosed, studied, treated, and represented and by the various interests, institutions, and moral arguments that mobilized these efforts and resources”’ (2000: 6). For her part, Leys identifies ‘the problem of imitation, defined as a problem of hypnotic imitation’ (2000: 8) as central to the history of trauma (see also Radstone, 2007b: 14–16). 4. Relating to transnational adoption, Drucilla Cornell adopts Gayatri Spivak’s phrase ‘enabling violation’ to indicate ‘what can be enabling for certain children – parents who adopt them and, in many cases, enable them to stay alive – is inseparable from the violation perpetuated through systematic inequalities’ (2007: 234).
