| | American Psychoanalytic Association 2020 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the publication of Freud’s “Beyond the
Pleasure Principle”, in which he grimly tried to contend with the catastrophic
trauma of his time, World War 1. And his conclusions were indeed grim—
repetition compulsion, death drive. Grim, yes, but unfortunately also prescient.
We are now living in the midst of our own catastrophic traumata, our own contact
with the workings of the repetition compulsion and the death drive: millions
fleeing with nowhere to go, the climate becoming what it has never been, nations
and neighborhoods bunkering themselves into racist, xenophobic enclaves.
On Saturday evening, at our Special Symposium we will explicitly address the
issue of thinking psychoanalytically within this howling surround. Our two
esteemed Plenarists, Robert Jay Lifton and Carol Gilligan, will be joined by
Irma Brenman Pick, Lindsay Clarkson, Dorothy Holmes, Francisco Gonzalez,
Luis Ripoll and Ann Pellegrini —representing five separate decades of analytic
thinking—will engage in a structured conversation, providing their own points
of view on how they are grappling generatively, in both clinical and extra-clinical
work. Visit our friend's website at: https://apsa.org/ |

| | | | | | APSA20-300 
| | Plenary Address: Dr. Robert Lifton: “Owning Reality – Reflections on Cultism & Zealotry” Speakers: Dr. Robert Jay Lifton This address connects Dr. Robert
Jay Lifton’s past work on the
psychology of zealotry with current
observations on mental predators
who claim to own reality. It draws
upon examples from Chinese
thought reform, the Aum Shinrikyō
cult, Nazi genocide, and the solipsistic reality of
Donald Trump. An alternative is the collective
expression of a more open and resilient “protean
self,” which can enable us to respond to these threats
to the human future. | | | | | | $18.00

America we expand our vital discussion of race to
contrast how the categorization of race as a social
construct versus racial difference as a biological
entity impact theory formulation and practice in
the biological and psychological sciences. Evelynn
Hammonds, Ph.D., formerly Dean of Harvard College,
who holds joint appointments in the Department
of the History of Science and the Department of
African and African American Studies at Harvard,
will integrate the history of sociopolitical concepts
of race, the history of disease, and public health, in
the sciences and medicine, and present “The Return
of Biological Race in the 21st Century?” Dorothy
Roberts, J.D., an acclaimed scholar of race, gender
and the law, in the University Pennsylvania Law
School and Departments of Africana Studies and
Sociology, will review advances in scientific research
that elucidate race-based genetic differences in the
human genome, and propose an alternative model

describe the seven core features of contemporary
psychoanalytic therapy in clear, jargon-free
language. He will then discuss scientific evidence for
its benefits and how it compares to other “evidencebased” treatments like CBT and antidepressant
medication. Finally, Dr. Shedler will discuss how
the active ingredients of all effective therapies draw
on (generally unacknowledged) psychoanalytic
principles such as enhancing self-knowledge,
understanding problematic relationship patterns,
and reworking these patterns in the “here and now”
of the therapy relationship. | | | | | | $18.00
| | | | | | APSA20-310

the function of disrupting a story that otherwise can

| | | | | | APSA20-409 | | 100 Years After “Beyond the Pleasure Principle” – Our Contemporary Traumatizing Surround: Racism, Climate Change & Migration: An Intergenerational Discussion Speakers: Moderators: Donald B. Moss, M.D., Lynne Zeavin, Psy.D. , Presenters: Lindsay L. Clarkson, M.D., Carol Gilligan, Ph.D., Francisco Gonzalez, M.D. , Dorothy E. Holmes, Ph.D., ABPP , Robert Jay Lifton, M.D. Ann Pellegrini, Ph.D., Irma Brenman Pick, Luis H. Ripoll, M.D. In a round-table discussion, eight participants
addressed issues pertaining to the traumatizing
surround common to them and to the audience—
with a focus on climate change, racism, and
migration. This discussion highlighted new ways
of thinking about how to interpret the effects of that
surround on ourselves and our patients. Dr. Robert
Jay Lifton, perhaps the world’s foremost authority
on these issues, was joined by a wide range of
psychoanalytic thinkers—each of whom has thought
deeply about the place of trauma inside and outside
the consulting room. | | | | | | $25.00

| | | | | | APSA20-413 | | Current Findings in Neuropsychoanalysis Speakers: Chair: Richard J. Kessler, D.O. Presenter: Margaret R. Zellner, Ph.D., L.P. Modern neuroscience has allowed us to recognize
more complex and dynamic organizing principals
of brain functioning. This development has
encouraged exploration of basic psychoanalytic
principles within neuropsychoanalysis. Understanding the brain networks that process memory, fantasy, emotion and value has offered insights into the essentials of human motivation.
New information challenges our understanding of the therapeutic process and at the same time reveals to us the nature and power of psychoanalysis to promote change. | | | | | | $18.00
