Discrimination Against the Other

Redaktion: Blanck Cereijido, Fanny

Beschreibung

Psychoanalysis and Other Disciplines Confront Prejudice: Discrimination Against the Other presents interdisciplinary perspectives on prejudice.

This book considers both the negative and positive implications of a priori transmission of values and knowledge. It examines various aspects of prejudice from the perspectives of psychoanalysis, biology, sociology and law. The contributors consider prejudice to be a judgement that precedes experience; it organises and discriminates the events and facts we must assess to understand the world around us, thereby helping us make sense of the world of words, concepts, networks and values into which we are born. Chapters cover a range of topics such as racism, superstition, discrimination and prejudice in psychoanalytic practice. This volume provides a path-breaking treatment of prejudice and how it affects our lives and interactions with others.

Psychoanalysts in training and in practice will find this book a vital resource.

Rezensionen

"The COVID-19 pandemic and the US Black Lives Matter movement have surfaced deep enduring structural discrimination and its dire consequences. Psychoanalysis and Other Disciplines Confront Prejudice: Discrimination Against the Other provides a timely exploration of the feelings and thinking that lead to hatred between humans. It thoughtfully exposes how discrimination provides a sense of belonging. Consequently, discrimination becomes even more prevalent and brutal when identity is threatened.

Fanny Blanck-Cereijido has done a masterful job drawing together outstanding authors from diverse fields to contribute to this multidisciplinary and complex study which includes psychoanalytic, cultural, social, philosophical, and

medical perspectives. The book offers a broad vision to the reader with which to confront the multiple dimensions of prejudice. Prejudice is transmitted from generation to generation and this book attempts to challenge that transmission by helping readers understand the unconscious processes which drive it. In a time of pandemic, war, forced migrations and exile, it is a magnificent contribution toward a world of peace and tolerance."

Adriana Prengler, Vice-President of the International Psychoanalytical Association

"Prejudice is inherent to the subject and to groups. It's based on a rejection of the new, the foreign, the alien, and the not known. Prejudice relates to systems of belief, of faith, and it is the support for racist and discriminatory thoughts. This book problematizes the topic of prejudice and analyzes in depth the different meanings it has for clinical and theoretical psychoanalysis, biology, and conductism. It is conceived as a complex system."

Janine Puget, psychoanalyst of the de la Asociación Psicoanalítica de Buenos Aires (2014)
