A Political Psychoanalysis for the Anthropocene Age: The Fierce Urgency of Now
Autor Ryan LaMotheen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 sep 2023
Presented in two parts, the book first uses a psychoanalytic approach to interrogate political-economic realities and their impact on shaping Western political selves in the Anthropocene age. Ryan LaMothe identifies core illusions of the Western psyche and how they shape behavior and relations, as well as how they are implicated in various emotional responses to climate change like eco-mourning and eco-denial. Topics such as political dwelling, sovereignty, political violence and change, climate obstacles such as capitalism, nationalism, and imperialism, and the problem of hope are explored using psychoanalytic and philosophical perspectives. LaMothe then considers the role of psychoanalysis in the public-political realm, as well as how a psychoanalytic political perspective invites reforming the education and practice of psychoanalysis.
A Political Psychoanalysis for the Anthropocene Age will be thought-provoking reading for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, as well as anyone interested in the politics of climate change.

Postgraduate and ProfessionalRecenzii
"Ryan LaMothe ranks among the most penetrating, wide-ranging and illuminating interpreters of the onset of the Anthropocene age. No one surpasses him for crafting an acute and balanced analysis of the many political, ethical and moral issues that this turbulent new era entails. His sharp psychoanalytic insights make this an especially valuable contribution to our understanding of the unfolding crisis." - Kurt Jacobsen and David Morgan, co-editors of Free Associations.
"In his at once expansive and finely detailed exposé of the illusions that are killing us and destroying our planet, Ryan La Mothe puts psychoanalysis, philosophy, and political science on the couch and arrives at a revolutionary understanding of a new psychoanalytic political theory. Radical to its Aristotelian roots and with all the "Urgency of Now," La Mothe’s carefully argued masterpiece of interdisciplinary scholarship is more than a riveting read. It is essential to our survival as a species." - Hattie Myers PhD -- Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research (IPTAR), Editor in Chief of ROOM: A Sketchbook for Analytic Action.
"LaMothe makes a compelling case for the fierce urgency of bringing political philosophy into heated, constructive conversation with psychoanalysis. Crossing these and other boundaries, he shows, can allow us to begin to understand and address the multiple catastrophes of the Anthropocene. Philosophers, psychoanalytically minded practitioners, and anyone prepared for a bracing investigation ranging from theories of capitalism to theories of care, among other areas, will benefit from this interdisciplinary book. Our psychic stability and the stability of our planet make thinkers like LaMothe required reading." - Susan Kassouf, PhD, Licensed Psychoanalyst (National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis)
