Debates
Our first online interactive event “New Families: what psychoanalysis has to say about them” will be starting on Monday, the 3rd of February and closing Friday, the 28th of March. Mali Mann, from the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis, Anna Maria Nicolo, from the Società Psicoanalitica Italiana, and Janine Puget from the Asociación Psicoanalítica de Buenos Aires have written short introductory statements about New Families that provide an excellent starting point for our debate. The debate area of our website has been created, and you can access the initial position papers now, click here. You will need to log in to the site with your IPA membership logon. Guests are welcome, so please let your colleagues know about the discussion. Non-IPA participants will be able to create a guest account that will allow access to the debate area (not the members only area) in order to join us.
