>Narcissism and Violence against the Alien<: Not the increasing frequency of clinically relevant narcissistic disturbances alone, but also the wide dissemination of the narcissistic character as a new social type, explains why many people do not characteristically suffer passively from xenophobia, but react instead with hostility and aggression towards what is alien to them. As far as the narcissist is concerned, the more he is driven to indulge himself and stabilize his fragile sense of self with the help of grandiose phantasies, the more he projects the alien-inhimself onto others – with the result that he feels himself existentially threatened by others. The other person is made into the epitome of evil and weakness, of the wicked and the menacing. The narcissistic compensation is invariably associated with hostility towards whatever lies outside one's idealized self. This essay first demarcates narcissistic violence towards the alien from other social-characterological forms of violence towards the alien. Enlisting the reception of the Frommian conception of the self, as it was developed towards the end of the thirties, Rainer Funk distinguishes two different psychodynamics of narcissism; he then uses these to interpret violence towards the alien as an expression of wounded narcissism. Finally, the social causes behind the growth of narcissism in industrial cultures are reviewed.

Einführung in die Tagung
(2013)
Erich Fromm was not only one of the founders of IFPS in the 1960s, but also one of the forerunners of the intersubjective tradition in psychoanalysis. Trained at the Berlin Institute, he started in the 1930s, after emigrating to the USA, to reformulate psychoanalytic theory by focusing on man’s need to be related to reality, to others, and to him- or herself. Similarly to Sullivan, Fromm looked at man primarily as a social being. But in contrast to Sullivan, Fromm stressed much more man’s being molded by societal requirements and by an intersubjectivity that is determined by strivings originating in the structure of his social character. Because of Fromm’s ‘‘societal’’ orientation, his approach to psychoanalysis is still of relevance to understanding how the intersubjective and intrapsychic are interwoven in each individual. Beyond that, his approach enables insights into what is going on psychically in society and how these changes can influence the individual’s welfare or suffering.
Particularly due to technical innovations, we are witnessing an unbounding of reality that increasingly is reflected in an inner striving to get rid of the limitations and boundaries of our own personality by reconstructing it anew. This pursuit of de-limitation, dissolution and blurring of boundaries is seen as a central character trait of the Ego-oriented social character. Such a fabrication of a limitless per-sonality doubtless results in a weakening of such psychic abilities as experiencing one’s self as a consistent and ambiguous entity, being emotionally attached to oneself and to others, feeling one’s own strivings, affects and emotions, and being guided by one’s internalized norms and values. Lastly, the impact of this character formation is discussed in regard to clinical and therapeutic issues.
Funktion und Bedeutung von Vorurteilen und Projektionen für das Leben und Zusammenleben der Menschen
(2014)
Es wird über ein Streitgespräch einer Expertenrunde über die Leistungen Erich FROMMs berichtet. Zunächst wird darüber diskutiert, ob FROMM die Libido-Theorie tatsächlich überwunden habe. Hierüber gehen die Meinungen ebenso weit auseinander wie über die Frage, ob FROMM mehr zu Optimismus oder Pessimismus neigte. Einerseits wird behauptet, FROMM sei keine Alternative zu Freud, sondern habe lediglich dessen Konzept erweitert, andererseits wird eingewandt, FROMMs Ansatz sei etwas weitgehend Neues. Einigkeit herrscht darüber, dass FROMM ein genialer Mann gewesen sei, der die Psychoanalyse in wesentlichen Punkten ergänzt habe. Er sei aber mehr Suchender und Anreger denn Vollender gewesen. Seine Bedeutung liege in seiner Charaktertheorie, in geringerem Masse in seinen Beiträgen zur therapeutischen Technik und zu klinischen Fragen. FROMM sei ohne Freud, aber auch ohne Karl Marx kaum zu begreifen.
