Non-aligned psychiatry in the Cold War : revolution, emancipation and re-imagining the human psyche
Antić, Ana, zgodovinarka
This book explores the relationship between socialist psychiatry and political ideology during the Cold War. In the context of Yugoslavias traumatic split from the Soviet Union in 1948, the ...authorities embarked on a period of theorising and constructing a different form of socialist society, and clinicians and researchers from the psy disciplines saw their role as central to raising a new, revolutionary generation of Yugoslav citizens. This study argues that socialist psychiatry and psychoanalysis in Yugoslavia played an exceptionally important political role and contributed to some of the core discussions of democratic socialism, workers self-management and Marxism. It argues that the Yugoslav brand of East-West psychoanalysis and psychotherapy bred a truly unique intellectual framework in order to think through a set of political and ideological dilemmas regarding the relationship between individuals and social structures. The book therefore offers a thorough reinterpretation of the notion of communist psychiatry as a tool used solely for political oppression and emphasises instead the original political interventions of East European psychiatry and psychoanalysis.
