Psychoanalysis and Revolution by Ian Parker and David Pavón-Cuéllar
Psychoanalysis and Revolution: Critical Psychology for Liberation Movements
— Ian Parker and David Pavón-Cuéllar
What is revolutionary about psychoanalysis, and why should those of us concerned with political praxis take it seriously?
This manifesto is an argument for connecting social transformation with personal liberation, showing that the two aspects of profound change can be intimately linked together using psychoanalysis. This manifesto explores what lies beyond us, what we keep repeating, what pushes and pulls us to stay the same and to change, and how those phenomena are transferred into clinical space. This book is not uncritical of psychoanalysis, and transforms it so that liberation movements can transform the world.
With a preface by Suryia Nayak.
'There are always complex and inevitable ties between the personal and the political, but to understand them fully we need to grasp the radical potential of psychoanalysis, despite its uses being constantly tamed and domesticated. If you want to know how to make and to keep psychoanalysis revoutionary, read this Manifesto. It will inspire you.'
