International Conference, University of Manchester, 26-27 June 2017<\/strong>
\nISLAMIC PSYCHOANALYSIS \/ PSYCHOANALYTIC ISLAM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This international conference brings together scholars \u2013 including in critical
\npsychology, cultural studies and political theory \u2013 and practitioners of psychoanalytic
\nand group-analytic approaches to psychotherapy and counselling. We will explore the
\nrelationship between the clinic and culture in the contemporary world focusing on
\nthe challenge that Islam poses for psychoanalytic theory and practice, and the
\nresponse of psychoanalysts to Islamic theory and practice. The conference locates
\nthis critical project in the context of a series of historical transformations in the
\ndevelopment of Freudian and post-Freudian work, transformations that continue to
\nunderpin psychoanalytic debate. The conference organised by the College of
\nPsychoanalysts \u2013 UK with the support of Manchester Psychoanalytic Matrix and
\nCIDRAL University of Manchester promises to function as a site for dialogue. This
\nconference will be an opportunity to speak across the many conflicting traditions of
\nwork that comprise psychoanalysis, and of different interpretations of Islam and what
\nit is to be a Muslim today.<\/p>\n
