SUMMARY:Zoom (Explo) course - Adult Development: Growth in Theory\, in the Consulting Room\, and in the Historical Moment
DESCRIPTION:This is a concise and accessible 5-session introduction to theories of adult development\, featuring literary and historical case studies. In weekly meetings we’ll read Carol Gilligan\, Erik Erikson\, and Usha Tummala-Narra on processes of change in the context of social justice. In tandem we’ll read a new graphic memoir of adolescence by a Korean-American artist-writer (Deb JJ Lee\, In Limbo); study how the poet Allen Ginzburg used a psychiatric hospitalization at Columbia University in his 20s; and consider how the middle-aged Mohandas Gandhi helped decolonize the British Empire. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Otto Fenichel’s Rundbriefe for the Present Moment: Community Psychoanalysis in the United States
DESCRIPTION:From 1934 until 1945\, Otto Fenichel and a small group of left-leaning psychoanalysts were forced to flee the rise of Nazism in Germany. As refugees\, they furtively shared their ideas about the politics of institutional psychoanalysis through a series of private Rundbriefe (circulating letters\, or circulars)\, and discussed in the exchange of letters the possibility of developing a Marxist\, socially conscious and engaged psychoanalysis.  As Russell Jacoby outlined in his 1983 book The Repression of Psychoanalysis\, the efforts of Fenichel and his colleagues did not prevent the ultimate dormancy and repression of the more radical social project of psychoanalysis\, at least in the United States.  \nThis program hopes to take up the Rundbriefe experience at a sociopolitical moment that echoes that of Fenichel\, with war in Europe and across the globe and the rise of authoritarianism. Between September and November 2023\, a  group of psychoanalysts\, psychoanalytic psychotherapists\, and scholars began to exchange letters responding to Letter One\, Take II that the conference organizers wrote using Fenichel’s Rundbriefe as a starting point\, and which is available for review at www.rundbriefe.com. This conference will offer a live Zoom rendition of the circular exchange experience and an open conversation between a group of panelists about the future of Community Psychoanalysis in the United States.

SUMMARY:In a Human Voice: Care Ethics\, Morality\, and the Self
DESCRIPTION:Carol Gilligan\, psychologist\, feminist and ethicist will discuss her new book\, In a Human Voice. Forty years after the publication of In a Different Voice\, considered by the Harvard University Press as “the little book that started a revolution\,” Dr. Gilligan expands her ideas regarding morality and self to introduce care ethics which she conceptualizes as a voice of resistance and liberation. She will explain how patriarchy and gender binaries lead to inequity and breakdowns of choice\, such as we are seeing in the dismantling of reproductive rights and how the cherished psychoanalytic values of privacy and personal freedom are impacted by the intrusion of government control. We will look at how we may work as psychotherapists and psychoanalysts to nurture the human voice from a theoretical\, clinical\, professional\, and citizen perspective.

SUMMARY:Against Transantagonism: A Metapsychology for the Flourishing of Trans Children
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, Dr. Avgi Saketopoulou urges psychoanalysts to let the debate about the validity of trans children take its place in the fossil record of analytic history. Encouraging us to stop squandering our energies sparring with colleagues who see trans existence as cause for alarm\, she suggests it is time to move beyond transantagonism to create\, instead\, the psychoanalytic theories we need and do not yet have to work towards the flourishing of trans and queer children. Let us refuse\, once and for all\, the philanthropy of being “inclusive”: trans children\, Dr. Saketopoulou emphasizes\, deserve no less than a psychoanalysis that wants their transness and which does not treat their genders as undesirable or inauthentic. Such a project\, she cautions\, will require us to endure the twisting and re-making of our metapsychology’s very foundations. It is only then that we may enjoy a psychoanalysis that is responsible and response-able to queer life\, and which will not feel threatened by it or work to straighten or cis-iffy our patients. \nThrough a series of case vignettes\, Dr. Saketopoulou will address what stands in the way of a psychoanalysis that works towards the flourishing of trans and queer children\, taking on key concepts in child analysis. She will explain why the notion of core gender identity nests a ticking time bomb into the clinical process and why we need to relinquish our attachment to it; how we may reflect on gender not through the rubric of identity but under the aegis of contingency; why thinking about trauma as constitutive of some queer and some trans experience does not have to necessarily capsize into homotransphobia or conversion; how the demand for coherence and continuity overlooks the workings of important heteroclite psychic processes; and how to think developmentally without collapsing into developmentalism. The implications of this presentation extend far beyond the particularities of trans and queer childhoods\, and gesture towards renewed foundations for child psychoanalysis overall.
