Post-patriarchal, Post-heteronormative, and Postcolonial Psychoanalysis: Psychoanalysis for All
Autor Débora Tajeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 dec 2024
Débora Tajer examines contemporary psychoanalysis and its future by integrating three key strands of Argentinean cultural discourse: the popularity of psychoanalysis, the active feminist movement, and the burgeoning field of feminist psychoanalysis. Tajer delves into themes of subjectivity, power, gender, and family, revealing the patriarchal, heteronormative, and colonial underpinnings of classical psychoanalytical approaches. She also explores the contributions of theoretical-clinical instruments from a gender and psychoanalytical perspective. Throughout the book, Tajer highlights changes in femininities and masculinities, new family and relationship configurations, current forms of labour insertion, evolving ideals, and new modes of gender identity assumption and sexual expression.
Post-patriarchal, Post-heteronormative and Postcolonial Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training. It will also appeal to readers looking to understand Argentinian perspectives on the future of psychoanalysis.

Recenzii
“I wholeheartedly endorse this book. Necessary because psychoanalysis must reconsider whether the categories it has used to understand gender and sexuality still account for the subjectivities of our century, 'Psychoanalysis for All' is a vital contribution. Many conceptual tools that could have been revolutionary have become conservative and normative. Not to mention the fact that psychoanalysis has carried a normative bias since its inception. That's why Débora Tajer proposes a psychoanalysis that is both post-patriarchal, post-heteronormative, and post-colonial. Affiliated with a powerful and creative Argentine tradition of articulating psychoanalysis and feminism, Professor Tajer offers new theoretical and clinical elements for a psychoanalysis that addresses the challenges and difficulties of our time.”
Jorge Reitter, author of Heteronormativity and Psychoanalysis: Oedipus Gay
“Psychoanalysis for All is a courageous book. Debora Tajer criticizes conservative aspects of psychoanalysis based on colonial, patriarchal and heteronormative bases, without, however, renouncing her passion for this theoretical-clinical work and its transformative power. The experience of a psychoanalytic practice with a gender perspective allows us to face changes in bonds, ideals, identities, sexual practices, work and politics. It is a book that invites young analysts to continue to believe in transformation through words and for experienced analysts to remember to always live up to the subjectivity of their time.”
Patricia Porchat, Psychoanalyst. Professor at the State University of Sao Paulo
“This original and timely book lucidly demonstrates how psychoanalysis, as well as contributing to colonial and patriarchal gendered oppression, is vital to undoing the psychic damage this does. Through meticulous clinical and conceptual analysis, Debora Tajer persuasively shows what postcolonial, feminist and trans-supportive psychoanalytic practice looks like, as grounded in and engaging with local material-political conditions and practices. This vital contribution revises what therapeutic work should and can be. It should be read by all who counsellors and psychotherapists.”
Erica Burman, Group Analyst and Professor of Education, University of Manchester
“Debora Tajer’s book brings to an English-speaking readership important contributions to psychoanalysis of the Argentine School of Psychoanalysis and Gender. She explores the marks of patriarchy, heteronormativity, and coloniality within traditional psychoanalytic theory and clinical process and develops a gender-conscious psychoanalytic interpretation of contemporary gender roles, sexualities, and family forms. Tajer shows how Argentine psychoanalysis has been impacted by militant political struggles for gender equality in her country, and illustrates the relationship between subjectivity and power in the work of two prominent Argentine psychoanalysts, Silvia Bleichmar and Gilou García Reynoso.”

Author of Uprooted Minds: A Social Psychoanalysis for Precarious Times (Routledge, 2023)
“In this excellent book, Post-Patriarchal, Post-Heteronormative and Postcolonial Psychoanalysis: Psychoanalysis for All, Debora Tajer offers a deep dive into theoretical and clinical issues from a psychoanalytic and gender perspective. The implications for our understanding of changing femininities and masculinities, new family and relationship configurations and changes in sexualities and gender identities are explored. It considers socio-historical changes, particularly since the fourth wave of feminist empowerment in the last decade. This book is important for the psychoanalytic clinician entering contemporary clinical scenarios. It will be an enrichment for readers interested in this crucial topic.”
Patricia Alkolombre, Ph.D. Chair of Women and Psychoanalysis Committee, International Psychoanalytic Association, COWAP IPA President.
“In this remarkable book, Débora Tajer introduces her thoughts on gender and diversity, changes in family organization, trans-infancy as well as in the feminine condition and masculinity. Beyond traditional thinking, the author focuses on a clinical perspective facing the need to make transformations of the psychoanalytical approach to those changes. On this journey she proposes that contemporary psychoanalysis should be able to understand diverse subjectivities in order to contribute to a better theoretic-clinical comprehension of those that do not correspond to heterosexual and patriarchal norms. I highly recommend this book to psychoanalysts and other readers interested in this topic.”
Leticia Glocer Fiorini, Current chair of the “Sexual and Gender Diversity Studies Committee” of the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA). Former President of the Argentine Psychoanalytical Association
“If there is a future for psychoanalysis, it entails a work of depatriarchalization, deheterosexualization, and decolonization, as Paul B. Preciado stated. This is exemplified by Debora Tajer’s inspiring non-hegemonic theory of gender. From the supposedly peripheral position of an Argentinean thinker, here emerges a revitalized psychoanalysis.”
Patricia Gherovici, Ph.D. psychoanalyst and author
“Debora Tajer’s book Psicoanálisis para todxs. Por una clínica póspatriarcal, pósheteronormativa y póscolonial is a wonderfully refreshing contribution to the intersectional renovation of psychoanalysis from Global South Feminist perspective, an approach mainstream psychoanalysis cruelly lacks. Not only does the author unveil the patriarchal, heteronormative and colonial vision underlying the ‘classical’ psychoanalytical approaches, but she also offers invaluable theoretical and clinical tools to apprehend the changes in feminities, masculinities, and gender identities, together with the new forms of sexual and affective relationships. I firmly believe there is a real need or this visionary book, as far as a political conception of psychoanalysis is concerned.”
Thamy Ayouch. Senior Lecturer (Professeur des Universités) Head of Master 2 “Psychoanalysis and Interdisciplinarity” Co-manager of the “Subject and social transformations” axis of the CRPMS laboratory Head of the “Gender Practices: Psychoanalysis, Medicine Education and Society” degree course
“Psychoanalysis for all is a much-needed contribution to our psychoanalytic lexicon, and a timely and fresh toolbox to trace the haunting presence of patriarchy in contemporary psychoanalytic listening. Committed to the transmission of a psychoanalysis implicated in its political and historical drifts, Tajer generously shares the lessons learned from decades of work and makes the rich tradition of the ‘Argentinean School of Psychoanalysis and Gender’ available to an English-speaking audience. The book challenges us to re-think the clinic from the South, to the rhythm of a 'queer tango'. It is certainly a must-read!”
