PSYCHOANALYSIS ACROSS THE DISCIPLINES

How does psychoanalytic  work inform the ways we think about, use, and
conflict with other bodies of knowledge and kinds of practice?  We are
looking for papers exploring, performing, proposing, or critiquing
actual or  possible practical, historical, theoretical, methodological,
cultural, or institutional encounters and intersections of
psychoanalysis with other disciplines, theories, and practices, within
and without the academy.

"Ethical Violence"

Professor Jacqueline Rose, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University
of London
To Be Announced

Dr. Mark Solms, The Anna Freud Center
"What is Neuro-Psychoanalysis?"

Possible topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Whither Psychoanalysis:  New Programs and Pedagogies
Disciplinary Disruptions, Amplifications, Revisions
