Title: How psychoanalysis can contribute to understanding racism.
Authors: Numa, Sharon (AUTHOR)
Source: International Journal of Psychoanalysis. Oct2023, Vol. 104 Issue 5, p860-868. 9p.
Subjects: Psychoanalysis, Social anxiety, Racism, Object relations, Self, Anti-Black racism
Abstract: It is interesting that a number of black authors, particularly after the Second World War, turned to Freud and psychoanalysis to help them understand anti-black racism, anti-semitism and even capitalism; this is discussed in some detail by Eli Zaretsky ([32]). The relation between individual and group identity is complex and important, as Freud acknowledged in I Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego i (Freud [16]), and operates at both conscious and unconscious levels. Britton also points out that while psychoanalysis offers a model of the mind, patients also have their personal models which are largely unconscious, and it is our task to find out the nature of those mental models and belief systems.
