How does migration affect us in the deeper layers of our minds,
where forces are at work that affect our mental and physical
health, our experiences in the world and our behaviour? This edited
volume brings together contributions on the social, historical and
personal aspects of migration from a psychoanalytic viewpoint.
Clinical perspective is combined with a wider view that makes use
of psychoanalytic concepts and experience to understand problematic
issues around migration today. Later chapters take the historical
background into account: the history of psychoanalysis itself is a
history of migration, beginning with Freud's experiences of
migration, in particular his escape from Vienna to London at the
end of his life, to answer questions regarding migration, refugees,
living in a 'multicultural society' and living in a 'foreign
culture'. Taking on the challenge of looking at the multi-layered,
often subtle, yet powerful emotional and unconscious layers of
meaning around migration, this book brings together practice and
theory and will be of great interest to psychoanalysts,
psychotherapists and those with an interest in the working of the
mind in an intercultural context.
