Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom

Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom

Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film proposes a way of constructing hidden psychological narratives of popular film and novels. Instead of offering interpretations of classic films Trevor C. Pederson recognizes that the psychoanalytic tradition began with making sense of the seemingly inconsequential. Here he turns his attention to popular films like Joel Schumacher's The Lost Boys (1987). While masterworks like Psycho (1960) are not the object of interpretation Hitchcock’s film is used as a skeleton key. The revelation that Norman Bates’ character had been his mother all along suggests a framework of reading a film as having symptom characters who are excised to create a latent plot. The symptom character's behavior or inter-relations are then transcribed to an ego character. This is a shift in the tradition of literary doubling from hermeneutic intuition to a formal methodology that generates data for the unconscious. Pederson continues the project of unifying competing schools into a single model of mind and offers clinical examples from his own practice for all its terms. Psychodynamic techniques that emphasize the importance of working with the body the id and the ubiquity of repetition are introduced. A return to Freud’s structural theory in which complexes are anchored in the stages of superego development is used to carefully plot and explain the social nature of the superego and its relation to authority in society (secondary narcissism) and the otherworldly (primary narcissism). Discrete phases of superego development and their ties to both the social and the id revive the grand promises of classical psychoanalysis to link with every field in the humanities. Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists as well as scholars of film studies and literature interested in using a psychoanalytic approach and ideas in their work. | Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom

Policing Welfare Fraud The Government of Welfare Fraud and Non-Compliance

Policing Welfare Fraud The Government of Welfare Fraud and Non-Compliance

Policing Welfare Fraud charts and interrogates the suite of measures ostensibly designed to combat welfare fraud and non-compliance. In Australia which serves as the empirical focus of this book these strategies include stringent ID checks pre-emptive data surveillance technologies including the infamous and illegal ‘robodebt’ programme a dedicated fraud hotline and an ‘intelligence-led’ fraud investigation framework. Drawing on original documentary and interview data including interviews with fraud investigators this book unpacks the logics that underpin these anti-fraud initiatives with a focus on how these initiatives are imbued with logics and practices more readily associated with the criminal justice system. The central argument of the book is that the emergence of contemporary welfare compliance regimes represents a form of ‘governing through fraud’ in which the threat of welfare fraud has effectively necessitated a regime of criminalisation within the welfare state. This has been enabled by a broader process of neoliberal welfare reform which has cast suspicion over all welfare use. The overall effect of this regime is to restrict access to social security punish welfare recipients and stigmatise welfare use. Policing Welfare Fraud also highlights points of contradiction and multiplicity in the enactment of specific welfare compliance initiatives including attempts by welfare officials to moderate or reformulate these strategies ‘on the ground’. These findings demonstrate that the criminalisation of welfare is neither uniform nor inexorable and that more progressive welfare reform is possible. An accessible and compelling read this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology sociology politics and those interested in the policing of welfare recipients. | Policing Welfare Fraud The Government of Welfare Fraud and Non-Compliance

Biological Affinity in Forensic Identification of Human Skeletal Remains Beyond Black and White

Biological Affinity in Forensic Identification of Human Skeletal Remains Beyond Black and White

Ancestry determination in the identification of unknown remains can be a challenge for forensic scientists and anthropologists especially when the remains available for testing are limited. There are various techniques for the assessment of ancestry ranging from traditional to new microbiological and computer-assisted methods. Biological Affinity in Forensic Identification of Human Skeletal Remains: Beyond Black and White presents a range of tools that can be used to identify the probable socio-cultural race category of unknown human remains. Gathering insight from those who have made recent improvements and scientific advances in the field the book begins with the historical foundations of the concept of biological affinity and the need for increased research into methods for determining ancestry of skeletal remains. The contributors cover a range of topics including: Ancestry estimation from the skull using morphoscopic and morphometric traits and variables Innovative methods from metric analyses of the postcrania and new approaches to dental non-metric variationThe biological diversity of Hispanic populations and use of discriminant function analysis and 3D-ID software to determine ancestryMethods of age progression and facial reconstructions to create two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) facial composites for missing peopleThe preparation of skeletal remains for DNA extraction and sampling and mtDNA methods that are available for identification of haplogroups (e. g. ancestral populations) No single method or technique is adequate in the assessment of ancestry. For accurate determinations the use of traditional and new techniques combined yields better results. This book demonstrates the large repertoire of tools available to those tasked with these challenging determinations. | Biological Affinity in Forensic Identification of Human Skeletal Remains Beyond Black and White

Psychoanalytic Thinking A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice

Psychoanalytic Thinking A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice

A video of Don Carveth discussing the book and its subject matter can be accessed using the following web URL: https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=yW7tGq0uEtU Since the classical Freudian and ego psychology paradigms lost their position of dominance in the late 1950s psychoanalysis became a multi-paradigm science with those working in the different frameworks increasingly engaging only with those in the same or related intellectual silos. Beginning with Freud’s theory of human nature and civilization Psychoanalytic Thinking: A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice proceeds to review and critically evaluate a series of major post-Freudian contributions to psychoanalytic thought. In response to the defects blind spots and biases in Freud’s work Melanie Klein Wilfred Bion Jacques Lacan Erich Fromm Donald Winnicott Heinz Kohut Heinrich Racker Ernest Becker amongst others offered useful correctives and innovations that are nevertheless themselves in need of remediation for their own forms of one-sidedness. Through Carveth’s comparative exploration readers will acquire a sense of what is enduringly valuable in these diverse psychoanalytic contributions as well as exposure to the dialectically deconstructive method of critique that Carveth sees as central to psychoanalytic thinking at its best. Carveth violates the taboo against speaking of the Imaginary Symbolic and the Real unless one is a Lacanian or the paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions unless one is a Kleinian or id ego superego ego-ideal and conscience unless one is a Freudian ego psychologist and so on. Out of dialogue and mutual critique psychoanalysis can over time separate the wheat from the chaff collect the wheat and approach an ever-evolving synthesis. Psychoanalytic Thinking: A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists and more broadly to readers in philosophy social science and critical social theory. | Psychoanalytic Thinking A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice

Bringing Forth Prosperity Capacity Innovation in Africa

Bringing Forth Prosperity Capacity Innovation in Africa

Path to Capacity Innovation: An Africa-MNC Strategic Alliance a policy framework is advanced proposing a strategic alliance between African countries -represented by NEPAD- and the multinational corporation with input from the NGO and couched upon an NEPAD-MNC-NGO cross-fertilizing integrative structure. Capacity innovation is the key to Africa's transformation: with the appropriate catalysts innovation and transformation are but a matter of time in gestation. The first of two major catalysts necessary to prompting this change so long sought by Africans came at the adoption of the New Partnership for Africa's Development. It is one of the most profound collaborations of African Heads of State. The second catalyst is proposed in this work in the form of the multinational corporation as change agent for the innovation process working in alliance with NEPAD as Africa's spokesperson for innovation. The policy framework for African capacity innovation is the material product along with discourse for redress of corruption and security policy narrative for protecting the assets of multinational corporations. Bringing Forth Prosperity: Capacity Innovation in Africa questions capital theory as a development construct and an appropriate platform upon which sustained capacity innovation in Africa may emerge; explores Africa's road to modernity in the context of selected development constructs and assesses capacity innovation from a top down-bottom up perspective purposely to serve as backdrop to the Africa-MNC strategic alliance framework; constructs country capacity ID to identify internal resources available to African countries to support capacity innovation; conceptualizes the Africa-MNC strategic alliance to convey a capacity innovation philosophy; articulates an African capacity innovation policy framework to guide the Alliance through a series of actions designed to prompt innovation activity and set the continent on a course to sustained transformation; and articulates a scheme to protect assets -human and physical- derived through the Africa-MNC strategic alliance. | Bringing Forth Prosperity Capacity Innovation in Africa
