Gefühle haben großen Einfluss auf unser Handeln. Sie dienen als Motivationskraft und stiften in kollektiv geteilter Form Beziehung und Nähe zu anderen Menschen oder dienen der Abgrenzung von feindlichen Gruppen. Gefühle haben die Aufgabe, zu erkennen, was auf uns einwirkt, auszudrücken, was wir empfinden, und zu bewerten, was wir erkannt haben. In der Politik und in anderen gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhängen spielen Gefühle deshalb eine zentrale Rolle: Der affektive Furor, den der Populismus entfacht, bündelt ohnmächtige Wut, blinden Hass, Neid, Verbitterung und Rachewünsche zu Ressentiments, die das soziale Zusammenleben vergiften. Gefühle, die an der menschlichen Verletzbarkeit anknüpfen, wie etwa Besorgnis, Trauer, Mitleid, Empathie und Hoffnung, eröffnen hingegen die Chance auf alternative Perspektiven. An zahlreichen Beispielen aus aktuellen politischen Auseinandersetzungen erläutert der Autor, wie Gefühle politisches Handeln beeinflussen und wie mit Gefühlen Politik gemacht wird.

"One of the most pressing needs of modern society is to understand and construct organizations that are not only effective in terms of carrying out work but that also allow and encourage people to develop their full human potential. Psychoanalytic theory describes those primary processes that lie at the heart of human activity and provides new insights for understanding group and organizational behaviour. With a new introduction written by Vega Roberts, this Classic Edition of The Psychoanalysis of Organizations presents the theories of Sigmund Freud, Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, Elizabeth Lewin and Eric Menzies in plain language and shows their relevance to normal working life. First published in 1978, Robert De Board takes a wide-ranging overview of the major psychoanalytic theorists and organizational researchers, and analyses how the two groups can work together. Written in a very accessible style, it makes sophisticated psychoanalytic and management concepts comprehensible and usable for anyone"--

In their discussion of torture, the contributors to this book write of what its victims cannot put into words and the work that has to be done with them to that end. Working with a victim's account of a traumatic experience goes much further than any debriefing technique would have us believe. Above all, victims need someone to listen carefully to what they have to say: that person will be the first to offer a refuge for the pain of those who have no internal "shelter" of their own. --

In this study the engagement of scholars in theology and religious studies with Freudian psychoanalysis is examined. The book focuses on the explicit or implicit theological ideas and aims that have determined its reception. The analysis includes a review of Freud's theories as suggestions for reconfigurations of psychoanalysis are made in order to further theorize on concepts or fields of attention that are important in theology and religious studies. The aim of this double critical review is to establish what the theoretical potential of Freud's psychoanalysis might be.
