Do Black Lives Matter? A Psychoanalytic Exploration of Racism and American Resistance to Reparations
Psychoanalysts assert that when wrongs have been done to others the impulse to apologize and forgive is natural, although in reality efforts toward interpersonal and social repair are often frustrated. This article assesses current debates on reparations for African Americans, applying psychoanalytic ideas to account for American resistance to engage in a process of reconciliation. This article demonstrates, in addition, reparations as a psycholo…

Danger and Deformation
This essay is the second of a two-part American Imago article on a social theory of trauma. Measures to disrupt the transmission of traumatic experiences and their social sequelae are discussed as an ongoing cross-generational challenge, in which traumatic pasts capture a portion of a nation’s self-understanding. The essay examines how to repair societies and to recover lives freed from past experiences when trauma felt by earlier generations imp…
Melancholia and the Racial Order
A distinctive feature of the US, since its inception, is a remarkably steady and persistent division between whites and blacks . This distinction was based on the premise of a natural, real and durable racial difference between Africans and Europeans. Still today, the black/white binary sustains systematic inequality between the two groups through a set of largely unconscious institutional practices, rules, values, mores, emotions, and beliefs sy…
Melancholia and the Racial Order
Danger and Deformation
The concept of trauma has migrated over time. A term first employed to describe a form of bodily or physical harm became a description of an overwhelming psychological experience suffered by an individual. Trauma now can also describe events of a nation's past where prior experiences jeopardize current social solidarity and interfere with members' ability to function freely in the collectivity. The identification of social trauma often serves as …

Healing from History
How to mobilize a traumatic national history on behalf of a less fractured polity? How to gain closure over a past that bifurcates the nation and establishes (at least) two national histories - history as told by the victims and by the perpetrators, now to be replaced by a history, as Mark Sanders (2003: 79) describes it, not of 'bare facts but, at a crucial level, a history judged, and thus shaped, according to norms of universal human rights'. …

Self reflection(s)
Shelby Steele's The Content of our Character, and John Wideman's Philadelphia Fire are contrasted for what they reveal about the two authors’ confrontation with self‐expression and self‐definition in a society that denies African‐American individuality. I argue that Steele's and Wideman's distinctive solutions to personal expression as demonstrated in these works constitute the discursive boundaries, the poles between which black male subjectivit…

In this book, Jeffrey Prager examines the first decade of Irish independence in order to explain how the Republic of Ireland achieved democracy. In so doing, he provides a deeper understanding of the Irish case while shedding light on the proce…
