Immigration and the National Psyche: A Psychodynamic Perspective
[12 Credits]
Sep 22 - Oct 06, 2008
Join us for this important online conference aimed at expanding the understanding of immigration. It will consider the psychological issues underlying the experience of immigration on an individual and small group level of analysis. It will explore how immigration affects identity, how the experience of immigration is mentalized, and the consequences of dual national identities. Although immigration crosses ethnic boundaries, for this course, the Mexican/American experience will be used as a case-in-point for the discussion.
Discussions will be based on 3 articles and a film by Richard Ainslie all of which will be available online to attendees.
