    Book SynopsisWhat contribution has the law made to the work of analyst and patient in the consulting room? And what insights may be drawn from putting psychology itself on trial? In this ground-breaking book, the use of legal metaphors and the courtroom analogy by Freud, Jung, and psychology more generally are examined in relation to the practice of psychotherapy and analysis. In this way, psychoanalysis and analytical psychology are shown in fresh perspective to be disciplines of truth in the spirit of a trial or court proceeding.Trade Review‘Like a good crime lawyer, Mogenson picks up on a clue from C. G. Jung and follows its lead to the prosecution of his case. Jung had compared psychotherapy to ‘an endless inner trial’. Further to this, Mogenson notes that since the beginning of psychoanalysis therapists have often been called upon by lawyers to give evidence concerning the mental status of accused persons. But the invitation of Jung’s clue is to reverse this process and look for contributions that the law has made to the work of analysts and patients. The book cites Freud’s and Jung’s extensive use of the legal metaphor. It also tells us about the invoking of the courtroom analogy by patients and therapists. Psychotherapy is presented as a bringing of ego to justice, that is, to the truth of soul. All of this makes for fascinating reading – like a crime novel! In several senses of the phrase: psychology is on trial. – David L. Miller, Watson-Ledden Professor Emeritus, Syracuse University ‘What is the nature and truth of psychology? Addressing this question, Mogenson seeks to restore to psychology its nature as the logos of the soul. Through the mediating notions of the "dream of the courtroom" and criminality – to which, both literally and metaphorically, Freud and Jung referred – he reflects psychology back into itself, into its essence. Carrying forward the results of this reflection, he then prosecutes the insipid "pop" psychologists that confuse emotionalism for soul, as well as occasions when Freud and Jung failed to live up to their own profound insights. With subtlety of mind, he proves himself well up to thinking through to the dialectical truth of psychology and the soul’s uroboric self-relation and self-reflection.’ – Michael Whan, Jungian psychoanalyst and author‘In this original, challenging, and masterful work, Mogenson reaches into the depths of his imaginal life. Following Jung and Giegerich – but perhaps more importantly, an inner figure stimulated by the prosecutor Jack McCoy, from the TV series Law & Order – he puts psychology on trial for perpetrating a logos-less conception of man that does not do justice to truth. Challenged in this way to take its own use of the language of the law seriously, psychology is brought back to itself to restore justice, human dignity, and the integrity of the soul. Mogenson is the real McCoy.’ – Stanton Marlan, Jungian psychoanalyst and author‘It is truly astounding to learn from the wealth of examples that Mogenson unearthed how frequently and poignantly the psychological mind has been informed by the courtroom metaphor. And it is fascinating to see how his psychological intelligence manages to overcome the innocence of the usual clear-cut opposition of "criminal" and "judge" and to exhaust the speculative potential of each of the many aspects of this rich metaphor. Above all, we see how his in-depth comprehension of psychology’s dreaming of "the law" makes psychology come home to itself. Mogenson’s book is not only "about" psychology. From the beginning to the end it is itself psychology in action and thus can serve as a kind of practical training course for both intelligent beginners and experienced psychologists.’ – Wolfgang Giegerich, Jungian psychoanalyst and author‘A masterly indictment of psychology’s having given up on itself as a discipline of truth and mutated into the personalistic therapy that is generally practiced today. Mogenson’s witnesses against this trend include Plato, Hegel, Goethe, Nietzsche, Kafka, Heidegger, Freud, Jung, Giegerich, Girard, and Žižek. The book brilliantly prosecutes its case by correlating the speculative logic of psychology and the law. It is essential reading for practitioners of those disciplines as well as for thinking readers from every walk of life.’ – Ann Casement, Licensed Psychoanalyst and Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute ‘Like a good crime lawyer, Mogenson picks up on a clue from C.

  • Taylor & Francis Can Human Rights and National Sovereignty Coexist

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisLooking at two of the key paradigms of the post-Cold War eraânational sovereignty, and human rights â this book examines the possibilities for their reconciliation from a global perspective. The real or imagined fear of a flood of immigrants has caused and fuelled the surge of an amalgam of populist political forces, anti-immigrant movements, and exclusionist nationalism in many developed countries. In the last decade, we have witnessed the emergence of two phenomena in the political and legal spheres. On the one hand, there are liberal globalists asking for respect and the protection of the basic human rights of migrants and asylum seekers and arguing for their civic and social integration into host societies. On the other hand, there are growing calls for a tougher stance on immigration, and powerful populist politicians and governments have emerged in many developed countries. How can the idea of universal human rights survive exclusionist nationalism that uses a populist,Table of ContentsIntroduction Tetsu SakuraiPart 1 Tension between National Sovereignty and Rights of Immigrants1.
