Narcissism: Psychoanalytic Clinicians and Researchers in Dialogue presents current research and practice on working psychoanalytically with narcissism.The contributors discuss a broad spectrum of approaches for understanding narcissism, from cultural-theoretical and social perspectives to clinical psychoanalytic observations and conceptual clarifications of terms, and new interdisciplinary and extra-clinical psychoanalytic research. Part I deals with the social danger posed by the close, unconscious link between pathological narcissism and extreme destructiveness. Part II is devoted to insights gained from years of psychoanalysis and long-term psychoanalytic treatment of patients with narcissistic pathology. Part III discusses how psychoanalysis tries to meet contemporary cultural challenges, and this book concludes with three chapters devoted to the important issue of narcissism in adolescence and young adulthood.This book will be essential reading for psychoanalysts in practice and in training.

Als ein "Junktim zwischen Heilen und Forschen" charakterisierte Freud die Forschung in der Psychoanalyse. Das analytische Verfahren sei das einzige, bei dem dies kostbare Zusammentreffen gewahrt bleibe. Bis heute provoziert die "Junktimforschung" Kontroversen zwischen der "klinischen" Forschung, die in der analytischen Situation selbst stattfindet, und der "extraklinischen" Forschung, die im Anschluss erfolgt - innerhalb und außerhalb der psychoanalytischen Community. Drei namhafte psychoanalytische Forscher stellen anhand eigener Studien und konzeptueller Überlegungen ihre Positionen zur Diskussion.

Die Schicksale des ausgesetzten Königssohns Ödipus, von Odysseus, Persephone, Jason, Medea und vielen anderen Gestalten der Antike erinnern daran, dass Migration, Flucht und Trauma so alt sind wie die Menschheit selbst und sich in unbewussten Phantasien bei Individuen und Gruppen niedergeschlagen haben. Sie bilden oft unerkannte Quellen für Neugier und Interesse an Geflüchteten einerseits, aber auch von Fremdenhass, Antisemitismus und antimuslimischem Rassismus andererseits. Sie tragen zu den Spaltungsprozessen in vielen europäischen Gesellschaften im Zusammenhang mit der aktuellen Flüchtlingskrise bei. Zudem wecken Bilder von traumatisierten Geflüchteten Assoziationen zum Thema Trauma, das heißt zu extremen Erfahrungen, die das Selbst Todesangst, Hilflosigkeit und Ohnmacht aussetzen und derart überfluten, dass das Grundvertrauen in ein helfendes Objekt und ein aktives Selbst zusammenbricht. Dies mobilisiert den Impuls, wegzuschauen, zu verleugnen und die Augen vor dem Unerträglichen zu verschließen.In diesem Band möchten internationale Expertinnen und Experten aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen, diesen Impulsen professionell begegnen, um sich traumatisierten Menschen mit Flucht oder Migrationserfahrung empathisch zuzuwenden und dadurch die transgenerative Weitergabe von Traumatisierungen abzumildern.
