On the Importance of Being (Earnestly) Hybrid – Or, Qualms of a Quasi-Postmodernist: Commentary on Paper by Susan Fairfield
- In the last decade Bowlby's ideas on attachment have been taken up with tremendous flourish within psychoanalysis in general and by feminists, journalists, and politicians. This paper explores this new turn and suggests some historic reasons for the convergence between feminist ideas, politics, and attachment theory. While welcoming the wider dissemination of an attachment paradigm, it cautions against the too easy uptake of ideas that may be less than congruent with the fundamental challenge that attachment theory poses for conventional psychoanalytic models of the mind.
