WHY WORK HAS BECOME SUFFERING, Foundations of Psychoanalysis
Gérard Haddad

What place does work have in the unconscious? Today, when mass unemployment and job burnout are critical social issues, psychoanalysis must grapple with the pains and pleasures work entails, first, perhaps by comparing the basic structures of farm labor and dream work.

est devenu une souffrance (Paris: Éditions François Bourin, 2013).

MEETING PLACE: The School of Visual Arts, 136 West 21st Street (between Sixth and Seventh Avenues), New York City. Please ask at the front desk for the room number.
