Korte beschrijving/Annotatie

Psychoanalysis meets a world shaped by borders, limits, and divisions.

Tekst achterflap

From political division and migration to digital culture and the lasting effects of the COVID pandemic, this book explores how boundaries – between people, nations, disciplines, and even within ourselves – shape the way we live, think, and relate to others. Bringing together voices from psychoanalysis and philosophy, it offers a fresh look at today’s most pressing tensions, ranging from political conflict and social fragmentation to personal identity and emotional life. What sets this volume apart is its ability to connect intimate human experience with global realities, showing how the same forces that divide societies also operate within the psyche. Clear and thought-provoking, it invites readers to reconsider familiar ideas about difference, connection, and responsibility in a rapidly changing world.

Yianna Ioannou is Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology at the University of Nicosia and a clinical supervisor for the Center of Therapy, Training and Research.
Izzy Powis is a writer and psychoanalyst in formation based in New York City.
Sinziana Ravini is a psychoanalyst, writer, curator and art theory teacher based in Bucharest.
Léa Silveira is Professor of Philosophy at the Federal University of Ceará (UFC), and researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq, Brazil).
Jamieson Webster is a clinical psychoanalyst and Professor at The New School for Social Research.

Spanning geopolitics, clinical theory, continental philosophy, and cultural critique, it draws on an impressive international roster of psychoanalysts and philosophers to rethink the question of limits — within and beyond the clinic. - Claire Nioche, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord
