[Online ISSN 1522-1970] N2 - This study, through the concept of biophilia, examines how we can restore a >love of life< in a world often characterised by rationalisation, destruction, and alienation from self and nature. Specifically, we observe how outdoor adventures during travels might contribute to the development of biophilic feelings. To this end, we employed a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to analyse the narratives from nine participants in the UK, Germany, and Serbia. The findings suggest that adventure activities in the outdoors foster the development of meaningful relationships with the self, other humans and non-human nature, all contributing to the enhancement of eudaimonic wellbeing. The study adds to the tourism literature by arguing that more biophilic and ecological approaches, hitherto underutilised in studying the benefits of tourism from a positive psychology perspective, might serve as a lens through which to explore meaningful social transformation in times of polycrises.

Many Zen scholars, thinkers, psychologists, and countless scholars and Zen practitioners, represented by Hu Shi, D.T. Suzuki, Heinrich Dumoulin, and Erich Fromm, have devoted themselves to the study of Zen. Professor Mingdong Gu, the Kathryn Cissell Chair Professor at the University of Texas at Dallas, is one of the most accomplished. Professor Gu has more than 30 years of experience in Zen practice and more than 20 years of accumulation of Zen theory. After years of cross-cultural comparative exploration of Zen between the East and the West, he has created a new paradigm for studying the nature and basic principles of Zen and Zen enlightenment, and based on this, he has put forward a series of innovative viewpoints.

N2 - Against the backdrop of a global >authoritarian turn,< the question arises as to what extent social science conceptions of authoritarianism do justice to current social developments and to what extent it is worthwhile to seek additional explanations. After a look at the history of authoritarianism research, various concepts of authoritarianism are discussed: Altemeyer’s >right-wing authoritarianism,< the concept of authoritarianism developed by Decker and colleagues, Sidanius and Pratto’s >social dominance theory,< Duckitt’s >dual process model,< and Amlinger and Nachtwey’s concept of >libertarian authoritarianism.< In addition, Erich Fromm’s concept of >group narcissism< is compared with Tajfel and colleagues’ >social identity approach.< For Erich Fromm, group narcissism is a relatively stable aspect of a social character. Authoritarian group narcissists are exclusively and unscrupulously concerned with their own (and group-related) uniqueness, their power, and their money and therefore shamelessly discriminate against weak and inferior groups. It is therefore discussed whether group narcissism might not be a useful theoretical approach to observe and analyze the elitism of Trumpists and their supporters in addition to existing concepts of authoritarianism. Finally, Erich Fromm’s Theory of the Self is acknowledged as a meta-theoretical framework within which >academic< social psychological theories of identity and the self can also be placed. Therefore, a bridge between >academic< and psychoanalytic social psychology is advocated.

N2 - Erich Fromm not only developed a still-significant approach to social psychology, but he also represented a humanistic understanding of science that is groundbreaking for the social transformations of the present day. The article first attempts to show the religious and philosophical roots of his reception of humanism and then presents the psychological understanding of humanism that he refined and determines its significance for the present day. Fromm psychologically substantiates both the universality of man and his capacity for perfection by reflecting the existential situation of the human being as defined by brain development. With a different view of the unconscious, he then expands the psychological understanding of humanism. Instead of seeing what is unconscious primarily as the result of repression, Fromm understands the unconscious as the universal human being with all facets of human potential. These potentials, however, only become conscious to the extent that social filters enable them to become conscious. Humanism is therefore critical of socially conditioned filters and their alienating dynamics in order to no longer experience the hitherto unconscious realization of the human potential as something alien but as something profoundly one’s own.

CEG is a philosophical strand in older adult education aiming at the social emancipation of older learners. CEG links radical emancipation to the outcome of raising older learners’ presumed naïve consciousness with the help of an enlightened teacher. In this essay, we argue that the logic of radical social emancipation features theoretical contradictions at its roots, which translate into empirical ambiguities when employed to raise older learners’ consciousness. We address two problems: (1) older learners’ naïve consciousness and (2) its subsequent dependence on teachers’ critical consciousness. To solve these problems, we propose Jacques Rancière’s logic of educational emancipation, focusing on the individual’s capacity to learn by presuming intellectual equality as a pre- condition for learning rather than an outcome as with CEG. By treating this perspective in older adult education, we hope to emancipate CEG itself by refocusing its scope primarily on the educational realm.

N2 - The article presents some ideas about the phenomenality of thoughts. We understand the phenomenal as the pure presence without symbolic (i.e., verbal) determination. In this respect, the phenomenal comprises the imaginary such as images, sounds, smells, tastes, touch and feelings as well as the felt atmosphere (i.e., one's feelings that fill a space beyond the boundary of the body). The phenomenal represents the earliest form of thinking. At this point, a distinction is made between matter (the biological side of thinking) and the ideal (the ideal side of the biological). The line between the two sides can only be conceptualized in an abstract and mathematical way (as a quantum structure). From this basic framework, philosophical and cultural references (e.g., to Nancy's ontology of the body and Claire Denis’ film work), as well as psychoanalytic references (e.g., to the function of the skin), are established.

N2 - In this article, I will analyze how Erich Fromm’s humanism responds to the relatively recent criticism that humanism has faced. To accomplish this, I will address four challenges: antihumanism, transhumanism, posthumanism, and feminism. My main argument is that criticism of humanism in general can be countered using Fromm’s humanistic theories and ideals. I argue that humanism has been wrongly or inadequately accused of various horrors based on shallow premises and flawed arguments. Even when the criticism is valuable and challenges traditional humanism, Fromm’s interpretation of this philosophical tradition can address these accusations. The article’s main research question is how Fromm’s humanism overcomes the aforementioned forms of criticism. Additionally, are any of the critical accusations still relevant to Fromm’s writings? Most importantly, are there critical questions to which Fromm cannot respond? I will argue that, while Fromm’s personal opinions may have been problematic on certain issues, his theoretical framework is stronger. In the broader sense, his theories help us overcome issues that he may have personally neglected.

Using ethnographic data, the following paper demonstrates how young people, who reside in homeless hostels deal with feelings of anxiety and ontological insecurity. The paper argues that within the institutional setting of a homeless youth hostel, norms and values from outside of the hostel are reproduced by residents, to repair their ontological security. Younger residents become confronted with new levels of independence and freedom, which can prompt anxiety, negatively impacting upon their ontological security. It is contended that, to repair ontological security, and counter anxiety, those from similar cultural backgrounds gravitate toward one another and replicate the cultural norms and values to which they are accustomed.

Noting that patriarchy is instituted before the consolidation of capitalism, the conflituous relation that it establishes with romantic love shall be discussed by analyzing two pieces of literature, more specifically novels by Machado de Assis in which the triad love-marriage-jealousy emerges as a problem that, by the end, produces impasses and disagreements.

N2 - This study aims to examine the relationship between existential anxiety and religiosity. Employing a relational survey model, the research follows a quantitative and cross- sectional design. The sample consists of 467 individuals aged 15-65+, selected through random sampling. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Ok-Religious Attitude and the Existential Anxiety Scales, and analyzed with SPSS 28.0. Significant differences in total existential anxiety, its subdimensions meaninglessness, eath, loneliness, and freedom anxiety, and religious attitude scores were found based on demographic variables. Correlation analysis revealed a significant negative relationship between religious attitude and existential anxiety. According to regression analysis, death anxiety, loneliness anxiety, and meaninglessness anxiety significantly predicted religiosity levels negatively, whereas freedom anxiety was not a significant predictor. The study found that 25.7% of the variance in religious attitude scores could be explained by existential anxiety dimensions, with the strongest predictors being meaninglessness anxiety, loneliness anxiety, and death anxiety.

N2 - Although tension reduction is a key principle in drive theory, there are clear dynamic aspects of libido expression aimed at increased tension levels. In a paradigmatic shift from the Freudian conflict model, tension reduction and tension enhancement dynamics are re-conceptualized as valences toward the processes of tension reduction and tension enhancement, rather than toward the respective states of reduced tension or enhanced tension. We posit a unitary direction-independent foundational id drive toward tension level change which incorporates tension reduction and enhancement. As the primary drive circumscribed to manipulations of id tension level, the dynamics of Delta are distinguished from those of Eros and Thanatos whose purviews are in the domain of drive purpose/function (or evolutionary design) and also differentiated from the subjective phenomenological experience of drive expression which varies among people. Theoretical and clinical issues in sexuality and aggression are critically analyzed as entailing libidinal elements of tension enhancement and reduction. Key points are annotated with illustrative clinical vignettes. The intersections between Delta dynamics, ego psychology, and object relations are explored. Possible elaborations of sub-drive development entailing functional autonomy are outlined. Y1 - 2025 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Jones, David W.

El artículo sugiere que el compromiso con las >perspectivas psicosociales< que reconocen el vínculo inextricable entre los ámbitos psíquico y socialpuede ofrecer esta comprensión más matizada de la experiencia humana. Elartículo examina el desarrollo del pensamiento psicosocial, destacando lainfluencia de la práctica, particularmente la psiquiatría y el psicoanálisis, en laconfiguración de esta perspectiva. Basándose en diversas disciplinas, exploramétodos de investigación relevantes para los estudios psicosociales, incluidaslas entrevistas psicosociales, los métodos de observación, los sueños sociales ylos métodos históricos.

N2 - Gli articoli in questa edizione speciale esplorano tutti la complessa relazione tragli individui e il loro mondo sociale, esaminando i limiti dei paradigmi tradizionali. Insieme, offrono critiche solide sia al psicologismo che al sociologismo, evidenziando la loro incapacità di cogliere pienamente l’interazione complessa tra il sociale e lo psicologico, e sottolineano la necessità di una comprensione più sfumata. L’articolo suggerisce che l’adozione di una >prospettiva psicoso ciale<, che riconosce il legame inestricabile tra i regni psichico e sociale, può offrire questa comprensione più articolata dell’esperienza umana. L’articolo esamina lo sviluppo del pensiero psicosociale, mettendo in luce l’influenza della pratica, in particolare della psichiatria e della psicoanalisi, nella formazione di questa prospettiva. Attingendo a discipline diverse, esplora metodi di ricerca rilevanti per gli studi psicosociali, tra cui l’intervista psicosociale, i metodi osservativi, il social dreaming e i metodi storici. L’articolo conclude promuo vendo un approccio critico e sfumato alla comprensione dell’esperienza umana, che riconosca l’influenza profonda dell’ >inconscio sociale< sulle vite individuali e collettive.

N2 - Τα άρθρα αυτού της της ειδικής έκδοσης διερευνούν την πολύπλοκη σχέση μεταξύ των ατόμων και του κοινωνικού τους κόσμου, εξετάζοντας τους περιορισμούς των παραδοσιακών παραδειγμάτων. Μεταξύ τους παρέχουν ισχυρές κριτικές τόσο του ψυχολογισμού όσο και του κοινωνιολογισμού για την αποτυχία τους να συλλάβουν πλήρως την πολύπλοκη αλληλεπίδραση του κοινωνικού και του ψυχολογικού, τονίζοντας την ανάγκη για μια πιο λεπτή κατανόηση. Το άρθρο προτείνει ότι η ενασχόληση με >ψυχοκοινωνικές οπτικές< που αναγνωρίζουν τον άρρηκτο δεσμό μεταξύ της ψυχικής και της κοινωνικής σφαίρας, μπορεί να προσφέρει αυτήν την πιο λεπτή κατανόηση της ανθρώπινης εμπειρίας. Το άρθρο εξετάζει την ανάπτυξη της ψυχοκοινωνικής σκέψης, τονίζοντας την επίδραση της πρακτικής, ιδιαίτερα της ψυχιατρικής και της ψυχανάλυσης, στη διαμόρφωση αυτής της οπτικής. Αντλώντας από διάφορους κλάδους, διερευνά μεθόδους έρευνας σχετικές με τις ψυχοκοινωνικές σπουδές, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των ψυχοκοινωνικών συνεντεύξεων, των μεθόδων παρατήρησης, των κοινωνικών ονείρων και τον ιστορικών μεθόδων. Το άρθρο καταλήγει υποστηρίζοντας μια κριτική και λεπτή προσέγγιση για την κατανόηση της ανθρώπινης εμπειρίας, η οποία αναγνωρίζει τη βαθιά επιρροή του >κοινωνικού ασυνείδητου< στην ατομική και συλλογική ζωή.

N2 - Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan japanilaiskirjailija Osamu Dazain (1909–1948) teosta >Ei enää ihminen< (Ningen Shikkaku >人間失格< 1948) yhteiskunnallisen ulkopuolisuuden ja ihmisyyden tuskan näkökulmista. Analyysi keskittyy erityisesti teoksen päähenkilöön, Yozo Obaan, jonka kautta tutkitaan, mitkä tekijät vaikuttavat yksilön ulkopuolisuuden kokemuk-seen osana yhteiskuntaa sekä minkälaisia keinoja yksilö käyttää vastatakseen ulkopuolisuudesta aiheutuvaan tuskaan. Tutkielman teoreettisena viitekehyksenä toimii Erich Frommin (1962) teoria paon mekanis-meista. Teorian avulla tarkastellaan Yozon sisäisen maailman kehitystä sekä hänen reaktioi-taan ulkopuolisuuden kokemukseen. Keskiöön nousevat Frommin (1962) näkemykset automaattisesta yhdenmukaisuudesta, autoritarismista ja tuhoamisvietistä. Tutkielmassa osoitetaan, kuinka Yozon elämä kehittyy toistuvien epäonnistumisten ketjusta kokonaisvaltaiseen yhteiskunnalliseen ulkopuolisuuteen: seikkaan, johon Yozo pyrkii vastaa-maan epätoivoisin keinoin. Yozon tarina kytkeytyy kiinteästi Dazain omaelämäkerralliseen kirjallisuustraditioon, erityisesti mina-kertomusten (jap. shishōsetsu) tyylilajiin, jossa kirjailijan oma elämä ja teoksen fiktiivinen maailma limittyvät toisiinsa. Dazain oma elämäntarina, hänen suhteensa itsetuhoisuuteen sekä hänen yhteiskunnallinen asemansa 1900-luvun Japanissa valottavat merkittävästi teoksen taustaa ja sen tematiikkaa. Tutkimus paikantuu myös laajempaan yhteiskunnalliseen keskusteluun ulkopuolisuuden kokemuksesta: ilmiöstä, joka ei ole sidottu aikaan tai paikkaan. Dazain ja Yozon kokemat epäonnistumiset ovat universaaleja, ja niitä voidaan peilata paitsi 1900-luvun Japanin niin myös nyky-yhteiskunnan yksinäisyyttä ja syrjäytymistä koskevaan problematiikkaan. Teos toimii peilinä sille, kuinka ihminen usein saa apua vasta, kun hän on turvautumassa äärimmäiseen ratkaisuun, ja kuinka maailma voi näyttäytyä taistelukenttänä, jossa yksilö jää yksin.

N2 - In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, many Italians emigrated to South America, especially to Argentina and Brazil, in search of a better life than the one they were living in a country tormented by social and economic unrest. Later, with the advent of a political situation in Argentina strongly marked by instability, especially with the coup d’état that sanctioned the rise to power of General Videla in 1976, those who could boast even distant ties of kinship in Italy chose that destination instead to continue to build their lives. Among these were several who had been trained in psychoanalysis in Argentina. Once they started working in Italy, they necessarily passed on their training background influenced by a psychoanalysis that, in Argentina, had already started to think in terms of “field” and begun to be applied to groups and institutions.

Este artigo explora a percepção docente como uma estrutura de orientação do caráter social, influenciada por processos evolutivos, sociais e culturais. O objetivo é investigar a importância dessa percepção, considerando a constituição de um tipo específico de orientação do caráter social, desenvolvido em resposta às características morfológicas humanas em interação com o ambiente. A metodologia baseia-se em uma revisão teórica, utilizando referenciais da fenomenologia da percepção de Merleau-Ponty, da fenomenologia semiótica de Peirce e da teoria do caráter social de Erich Fromm, além de estudos sobre evolução, linguagem e comportamento social. Os resultados apontam que a percepção docente emerge como uma estrutura de orientação socialmente construída, ligada à necessidade humana de cuidado e cooperação. Conclui-se que essa orientação, enraizada no ato de ensinar, molda a prática docente e possui implicações significativas para a inclusão e o desenvolvimento social. N2 - Perception is a polysemous term and, therefore, requires conceptual delimitation to understand from which conceptual point of view it is being addressed. This article explores teacher perception as a structure of social character orientation, influenced by evolutionary, social, and cultural processes. The objective is to investigate the importance of this perception, considering the constitution of a specific type of social character orientation, developed in response to human morphological characteristics in interaction with the environment. The methodology is based on a theoretical review, using references from the phenomenology of perception by Merleau-Ponty, the semiotic phenomenology of Peirce, and the theory of social character by Erich Fromm, in addition to studies on evolution, language, and social behavior. The results indicate that teacher perception emerges as a socially constructed orientation structure, linked to the human need for care and cooperation. It is concluded that this orientation, rooted in the act of teaching, shapes teaching practice and has significant implications for inclusion and social development.

Y1 - 2025 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Rodado, Juan T1 - A relational psychoanalysis: The real presence of the analyst JF - International Forum of Psychoanalysis, Vol. 34 (No. 1, 2025), pp. 020-027. N2 - The Argentine psychoanalyst Julio Moreno (2010) theorizes two models of psychic functioning. One he calls associative functioning, which is composed of mental representations and words that link together in association, integrating both the conscious and preconscious. These representations are subject to repression and phenomena of displacement and condensation. The other type of psychic functioning is what Moreno refers to as connective functioning, which is represented by the immanent, the immediate, which falls outside the order of representation. These two types of psychic processing coexist and occur simultaneously and, for Julio Moreno, “the link” is the space between the two. This work intends to explore the linking dimension that an analytic relationship proposes and that is established in each analytic session in the patient–therapist pair. For this purpose, a clinical case is shown, describing the bonding climate, the analyst’s countertransference and the mutual unconscious work. It emphasizes that, in severely ill patients, the quality of the bond is more crucial than interpretative work, and for this, the live and real presence of the analyst is necessary.

Sociološke, ekonomske i političke posljedice promjena statusa doktorata znanosti pokazane su na nizu primjera iz različitih sfera društvenog djelovanja. Na te promjene već nekoliko stoljeća utječu industrijski i ekonomski razvoj, posebno danas kad dolazi do smanjenja brojnih ljudskih aktivnosti. Postaje nepredvidivo kamo će čovječanstvo dovesti sve veće posjedovanje. Budući da je okosnica izloženih razmatranja pojava društvene dihotomije, jasno razlučene u filozofskim pojmovima bitak ili bivanje prema imanju ili posjedovanju, u tekstu je upotrijebljen kurziv za te osnovne pojmove i neke iz njih izvedene ključne fraze. N2 - This overview examines how changes in the status of higher education, defined by the Ph.D. degree (doctorate of science) as both an achievement and a qualification for performing the most intellectually and creatively demanding tasks in society, have historically paralleled shifts in the concept of being – both for individuals and for society as a whole. The moral and cultural emphasis on being has given way to a societal focus on the moral and culture of having or possessing. The social, economic, and political consequences of changes in the status of the Ph.D. degree are illustrated through various examples from different spheres of social activity. These changes have been influenced for centuries by industrial and economic development, particularly in recent times, as many traditional human activities are in decline. The path of humanity, driven by an ever-growing culture of possession has become increasingly unpredictable. Given that the central theme of the presented considerations is the emergence of a societal dichotomy, clearly delineated by the concepts of being and possession, these and other related terms are highlighted in italics throughout the text.
