Presidential Symposium: Minding the Markets: How Psychoanalysis Can Help to Build New Economics and Finance Thinking

Speakers: Robert A. Johnson, MA, PhD (Exec Director of the Institute of New Economic Thinking); Professor David Tuckett (London, England); Warren R. Procci, MD, President (Pasadena, CA)

APsaA’s international colleague, David Tuckett, has sought to contribute to the development of a new field of “emotional finance” with a specific interest in understanding the recent and continuing financial crisis. Human emotion has a critical impact on financial markets and, until very recently, economic theories have failed to take this into account. At the heart of the worst financial crisis in decades is a failure to organize markets in a way that puts controls on the very human emotion and behavior which trading unleashes. Robert Johnson and David Tuckett each speak on this subject and then lead a discussion concerning how psychological and psychoanalytic concepts can offer considerable assistance in understanding the sometimes irrational behavior of people and markets.

The inquiries posed by the presenters in this forum pave the way for a psychoanalytic inquiry into the character’s identity of the hero and his relationship to the dramatic forces in these plays which set these tragedies in relentless motion toward their fateful outcomes. Two distinguished scholar-teachers, David Konstan, PhD, Professor in the Department of Classics at NYU, and Elizabeth Brobrick, PhD, a Visiting Scholar with Wesleyan University, provide interpretative comments for the audience, while Melvin Lansky and Leon Wurmser moderate the follow-up discussion with the audience.

Plenary Address: The Analyst’s Narcissism

Speakers: Warren R. Procci, MD, President (Pasadena, CA); Alan B. Zients, MD (New York, NY); Judith F.Chused, MD (Washington, DC)

The plenary address focuses on the narcissistic vulnerability of the psychoanalyst that is inherent in the practice of psychoanalysis. Using case vignettes, Dr. Chused details the problems presented by the analyst’s vulnerability to psychic injury as well as by the potential for grandiose self-representation and expectations. During the presentation several recommendations are developed as to how the analyst’s inevitable vulnerability to narcissistic injury and grandiose thinking can be used to further the course of an analysis.

Scientific Paper 4: Neutrality and the Ethics of Desire

Speakers: Author: Lewis A. Kirshner, MD (Cambridge, MA)

In this paper, the concept of an ethics specific to psychoanalysis are explored through a critical reading of Lacan’s seminar, The Ethics of Psychoanalysis. While it must obviously address moral concerns, a psychoanalytic ethics should also embody a unique perspective on human nature growing out of analytic experience and knowledge. In particular, the analyst’s desire is always in play in his attempt to sustain an ethical position. An examination of Lacan’s seminar highlights this link, but also points to a number of unresolved problems.
