IPA Web News 16

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
It is very important to me that ipa.world becomes a forum for psychoanalysts to express their thoughts and beliefs on how psychoanalysis affects them in their countries, homes and work. As such, I would like to share with you this month the views of our colleagues in the USA on prejudice; news from a fast developing Society in Mexico; an event in London which challenges the role of siblings in psychoanalysis; and the views of a patient who has experienced both CBT and Psychoanalysis but concludes that psychoanalysis is superior. We hope that you enjoy it.

Click Here to Read: A grandmother’s 36-year hunt for the child stolen by the Argentinian junta. In 1977 Estela Carlotto’s pregnant daughter was arrested. The Argentinian regime let her live long enough to have the baby before killing her. With others, Estela formed the Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo to search for the grandson she’d never known. Uki Goñi reports by Uki Goñi on the Guardian Website on June 7, 2016.
