Which 'forms of feeling' are facilitated and which discouraged
within the cultures and structures of modern state welfare? This
book illuminates the social and psychic dynamics of these new
public cultures of welfare, locating them in relation to our
understanding of borderline states of mind in individuals,
organizations and society. Drawing upon their idea of a
psychoanalytic sensibility rooted in Wilfred Bion's notion of
'learning from experience', the authors aim to access the new
structures of feeling now taking shape in marketized and
commodified health and social care systems. Integrating their
reflections on clinical work with patients, consultancy with public
sector organizations, political analysis, and the tradition of
Group Relations Training, they offer a wide-ranging perspective on
how contemporary social anxieties are managed within modern public
welfare. Our collective struggle with fears of dependency and loss,
and the demands of living and working in an interdependent
'networked' world give rise to fresh challenges to our ability to
maintain depth of emotional engagements in welfare settings. Part
of the Tavistock Clinic Series.
