THE INFLUENCE OF PSYCHOGEOGRAPHY UPON THE CONDUCT OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: Clinical and Metapsychological Considerations
| Publication Type | Web Article |
| Year of Publication | 2008 |
| Authors | Howard F. Stein |
| Abstract | Psychogeography begins with the vicissitudes of selfhood in a human body and proceeds outward to encompass the world. The issue of boundaries takes us to the heart of psychogeography. Symbolic group-boundaries have the quality of dreamlike condensations. Through boundaries we express anxiety over body integrity or cohesion versus disorganization, maleness versus femaleness, pleasure versus unpleasure, animateness versus inanimateness, security versus danger, symbiosis versus emotional separation (representational differentiation). How these all are resolved finds ultimate expression in the delineation of inside from outside: what and who are to be included in the group, and what and who are to be excluded from it. |
