SUMMARY:Eurowhiteness\, Imperial Amnesia and "Post-Colonial Melancholy"
DESCRIPTION:This is the next instalment in the series of seminars on Decolonising Psychoanalysis\, organised by the Race and Culture Committee of the Guild of Psychotherapists. The series has intended to open up conversations about psychoanalysis by initiating dialogues between academics and psychotherapists\, bringing clinical responses to the academic decolonial work. This seminar focuses on the racial politics at the heart of the post war European project\, and the psychological impact this socio-political history may have in the consulting room. \nHans Kundnani and in discussion with Anshu Srivastava \nSaturday 15th February 2025 \n3:00pm – 5:00pm GMT \nOnline seminar £12 – £24 \nAbout this seminar\nHans Kundnani writes: “My book Eurowhiteness (2023) was not written with psychoanalysis in mind. But its analysis of European history\, especially the recent period of EU enlargement and Brexit\, raises issues of imperial amnesia\, “postcolonial melancholy” and the return of a partially repressed civilisationalism. I argue that throughout the long history of ideas of Europe from the medieval period to the EU\, there has been a complex interaction between ethnic/cultural and civic ideas of Europe – and that ethnic/cultural ideas of Europe connected to Christianity and whiteness did not disappear after 1945 but rather persisted and influenced the postwar European project. Drawing on the last chapter of the book\, which focuses on the UK\, I will discuss Paul Gilroy’s idea of “postcolonial melancholia” and suggest that Brexit provides an opportunity for the UK to deepen its engagement with its colonial past. Finally\, I will discuss how central and eastern Europe fits into the global history of race and argue that joining the EU can be understood in terms of a transition from what József Böröcz has called “dirty whiteness” to full whiteness or Eurowhiteness.” \nSpeakers’ Biographies\nHans Kundnani is an adjunct professor at New York University and a visiting professor in practice at the London School of Economics.

SUMMARY:Afro-pessimism and psychoanalysis
DESCRIPTION:This is the latest in a series of seminars on Decolonising Psychoanalysis\, organised by the Race and Culture Committee of the Guild of Psychotherapists. The series is intended to open up conversations about psychoanalysis by initiating Transatlantic Dialogues between academics and psychotherapists\, bringing clinical responses to their academic decolonial work. \nDerek Hook\nwith Maxine Dennis (respondent) \nSaturday 26 October 2024 \n3:00pm – 5:00pm BST \nOnline seminar £12 – £24 \nAbstract – Derek Hook\nAfro-pessimism is an emerging critical theory that identifies and conceptualizes the historical persistence of anti-Blackness in the USA and beyond. Afro-pessimism also engages with psychoanalytic ideas in a radical and thought-provoking way. In recent years\, Lacanian theorists and clinicians have argued that Lacan’s notion of jouissance (the human dimension of libidinal intensity and arousal) offers us a rich psychoanalytic account of racism. And yet it might be with reference to Afro-pessimism that the concept receives its most pertinent and critically significant utilization. This talk will briefly introduce the theory of Afro-pessimism and the notion of racism-as-jouissance before highlighting a series of questions that this conceptualization poses both for social theories and important clinical concerns\, such as the transference. \n\nSpeakers’ Biographies\nDerek Hook is a Professor in Psychology and a clinical supervisor at Duquesne University. He is one of the editors (along with Calum Neill) of the Palgrave Lacan Series and of the four-volume Reading Lacan’s Ecrits (with Calum Neill and Stijn Vanheule). Along with Sheldon George he edited the collection ‘Lacan on Race’. He began his analytical training in London\, at the Center for Freudian Analysis and Research. He is the author of ‘Six Moments in Lacan’ and he runs a YouTube channel with many lectures on Lacanian Psychoanalysis. \nMaxine Dennis is a psychoanalyst\, consultant clinical psychologist\, who works with individuals\, groups and organisations. She has also directed and staffed on numerous Group Relations Conferences . Her private practice is in South London. Maxine is involved in teaching\, training and supervisory roles in both the UK and abroad. Her work involves a particular interest in the impact of racialisation\, trauma and mental health across the lifespan. This is on a backdrop of extensive experience within the NHS where she undertook various head and departmental lead roles. \nBursary tickets\nA limited number of bursary tickets are available on a pay-what-you-can basis to people who would not be able to attend the seminar without financial support.
