More specifically, how social, economic and political realities affect us psychologically. This also involves the question of how social-political theory and psychoanalysis might be combined to better understand this important and under explored field.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been debating what it is that we are talking about, and how to do it, as usual. This is part of our task. A recent round started with another exchange about the debated location of our next conference, then progressed to whether this question, or any such question, remains a good one for us to discuss, or a symptom, as it were, of the state of this mysterious collective, suggesting that our main work is the work of understanding ourselves as a group.<\/p>\n<p>It appears that underlying our discussion is the question that inspired the creation of this collective: Is there a psychology\/psychoanalysis that is neutral of social-political context, of history and ideology, or are we inherently embedded and expressing a complex set of such forces and realities? Which means that social, political and ideological questions are not a symptom, but of the essence of our thinking and work.<\/p>\n<p>And to focus on any given group phenomena, including this one: Isn\u2019t any group by necessity political, isn\u2019t the way the group sees and defines itself, how it decides its identity and norms the very definition of politics? Which means there is no group theory that is not at the same time a political theory.<\/p>\n<p>Or can we draw a distinction between the theoretical and political in our field, that makes sense?<\/p>\n<p><em>Eyal Rozmarin (USA) and Victor Donas (Chile), Co-Chairs<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/rozmarinphoto0216www.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4282 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/rozmarinphoto0216www.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" \/><\/a>Eyal Rozmarin, PhD (USA)<br \/>\n<a href=\"ma&#105;&#108;&#116;&#111;&#x3a;&#x65;&#x79;&#x61;&#x6c;&#46;r&#111;&#122;&#109;&#97;&#x72;&#x69;&#x6e;&#x40;&#x67;ma&#105;&#108;&#46;&#99;&#x6f;&#x6d;\">Email Eyal Rozmarin<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/donasphoto0616w.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4850 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/donasphoto0616w.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"202\" \/><\/a>Victor Do\u00f1as, MD (Chile)<br \/>\n<a href=\"m&#97;&#x69;&#x6c;&#x74;o&#58;&#x76;&#x69;&#x74;o&#95;&#x64;&#x6f;&#x6e;a&#115;&#x40;&#x68;&#x6f;t&#109;&#x61;&#x69;&#x6c;&#46;&#99;&#x6f;&#x6d;\">Email Victor Donas<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eyal Rozmarin, Victor Donas<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":10,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"issuem_issue":[65],"issuem_issue_categories":[],"issuem_issue_tags":[],"class_list":["post-7989","article","type-article","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","issuem_issue-bulletin-apr2019-vol18-no2"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
