Taylor & Francis Ltd - Migration And Intercultural Psychoanalysis Unconscious Forces And Clinical Issues - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: How does migration affect us in the deeper layers of our minds where forces are at work that affect our mental and physical health our experiences in the world and our behaviour? This edited volume brings together contributions on the social historical and personal aspects of migration from a psychoanalytic viewpoint. Clinical perspective is combined with a wider view that makes use of psychoanalytic concepts and experience to understand problematic issues around migration today. Later chapters take the historical background into account: the history of psychoanalysis itself is a history of migration beginning with Freud's experiences of migration in particular his escape from Vienna to London at the end of his life to answer questions regarding migration refugees living in a 'multicultural society and living in a 'foreign culture'. Taking on the challenge of looking at the multi - layered often subtle yet powerful emotional and unconscious layers of meaning around migration this book brings together practice and theory and will be of great interest to psychoanalysts psychotherapists and those with an interest in the working of the mind in an intercultural context.
