Anxiety, Psychoanalysis and Law

Confronting Chaos

Anxiety, Psychoanalysis and Law examines the challenges of maintaining a psychoanalytical stance when working in chaotic times. The international contributors reflect not only on their work with severely disturbed patients, but also during times of massive disturbances in society.

Anxiety, Psychoanalysis and Law examines the challenges of maintaining a psychoanalytic stance when working in chaotic times, with international contributors reflecting not only on their work with severely disturbed patients, but also during times of massive disturbances in society.

Presented in five parts, the book considers war, violence, society, pandemics and the family, with chapters reflecting on environmental destruction, new technologies, women’s healthcare, digital media and racial injustices. This cutting-edge collection also considers whether it is possible to make sense of these ambiguous and confusing times by looking at the issues from individual clinical work with patients who have had contact with the judicial process – from the bottom up.

Anxiety, Psychoanalysis and Law will be essential reading for psychoanalysts in practice and in training, as well as psychiatrists, psychologists and social and political scientists interested in global anxiety and the challenges facing society.
