Absolute Freedom
Within this book, the fields of analytical psychology and sociology combine to examine and explore current social theory and the concept that the author has termed 'absolute freedom'.
War As Reset
In an age continuously shaped and shocked by wars and societal crises, this book serves as an antidote to superficial media frenzy. Exploring the interplay between the insights from analytical psychology and global dynamics, it unravels the meanings behind our shared fears and invites readers to confront challenging truths shaping our present and future. Part I of this book explores the multifaceted aspect of war, as Stefano Carpani interviews authoritative figures from the fields of Jungian psychoanalysis, sociology, history, and religion. Their insights shed light on the meaning of war, the concept of fatherland, the masculine nature of war, and the potential for total conflict. In Part II...
Father-Daughter, Mother-Son
Verena Kast's Father-Daughter, Mother-Son was first published by Element Books in 1997. Since then, it has become a classic read for those adventuring into Carl Gustav Jung ́s concept of complexes—what they are, how they affect our life and shape our relationships— and for those wanting to understand more about the relationship between fathers and daughters, and mothers and sons—of whatever sex and gender. This book is not only a must read for psychoanalysts and psychologists, but it is also comprehensible and very useful for those that have little knowledge about this field and those eager to know more about themselves. This book is the first of the series titled Jungianeum: Re-Covered Classics in Analytical Psychology curated by Stefano Carpani.

Reflecting Critically on the Political Psyche
With passion and originality, within this new book, Samuels presents powerful material on culture and politics (including a critical take on political violence) and a compassionate account of the role of an individual when it comes to progressive politics. Initial chapters include his commentary on Edward Albee’s shocking play The Goat and a provocative and critical view on liberal idealisation of ‘the Other’. Then, there is more of Samuels’ celebrated work bringing therapy thinking to bear on politics, and as far as the practice and organisation of therapy is concerned, readers will find new work on how to organise a good training (you must use pluralism) and a robust account of wha...
Lockdown Therapy
Nominated as an IAJS Book Award Finalist 2023! This fascinating volume explores — from the perspective both of analysts and their patients—how the COVID-19 pandemic quickly and unexpectedly created profound and lasting changes in the ways psychoanalysis is conducted, and what those changes mean for analysis moving forward. The first part of the book is made up of interviews conducted by Stefano Carpani with authoritative authors in analytical psychology during the earliest phase of lockdown, centered on themes of the pandemic, lockdown, and how each individual was coping with the challenges those circumstances brought on. The second part features personal essays that further details the ...
Breakfast At Küsnacht
Breakfast at Küsnacht: Conversations on C.G. Jung and Beyond comprises a series of interviews with 10 Jungians and a special guest, Susie Orbach, feminist and relational psychotherapist. Each interview begins by asking them about the central steps of their intellectual biography/journey and which authors (or research areas) they consider essential for their own development and work (also beyond psychoanalysis). Therefore, when interviewing the Jungians, three basic questions were asked: (1) Who is Jung? Or, who is your Jung? (2) What is Jung´s relevance today? (3) What are dreams? These questions preceded a look into their own work and contributions. Themes contained within the book include: C.G. Jung´s work and his validity today; HIV and AIDS; Anima/Animus and Homosexuality; Alchemy; Dreams; Marie-Louise von Franz; Wolfgang Giegerich and Hegel; Otto Gross, the Personal and the Political; Individuation; Painting, Drawing and the Unconscious; the Red Book; Relational Psychoanalysis; Women, Feminism, Love and Revolution; The application of the I-Ching in therapy; Becoming and Analyst.
Jungian Perspectives on Indeterminate States
In Jungian Perspectives on Indeterminate States: Betwixt and Between Borders, Elizabeth Brodersen and Pilar Amezaga bring together leading international contributors to analyse and interpret the psychological impact of contemporary border crossing - both literally and figuratively. Each chapter assesses key themes such as migration, culture, gender and identity formation, through a Jungian lens. All the contributors sensitively explore how creative forms can help mitigate the trauma experienced when one is forced to leave safety and enter unknown territory, and examines the specific role of indeterminacy, liminality and symbols as transformers at the border between culture, race and gender. ...
