Race in Psychoanalysis

Viac o knihe

The book delves into the intersection of race and psychoanalysis, highlighting the overlooked racism embedded within the foundational texts of Freud, influenced by late nineteenth-century colonialist anthropology. It argues that this hidden bias continues to affect the field, particularly in light of recent racial violence in the US. The work calls for a critical reassessment of psychoanalysis, alongside other academic and professional disciplines, to uncover and address the racial prejudices that persist within them.
