This conference intends to address how psychoanalytic/psychodynamic
understanding or the psychoanalytic process informs our theory and our 
practice.
Please think broadly about how theory and practice in your discipline 
does or
does not promote social change. Topics might include:

*   interdisciplinary projects that draw on
     psychoanalytic theory
*   how and what we teach
*   the role and social context of clinical practice
*   political action; political process
*   how we understand and work with =91difference=92
*   psychoanalytic research: ethnography, discourse analysis
*   implications for group and organizational structure and process
*   theory development and the role of theory in social change
*   the roles of language: discourse and text
*   clinical interventions and applications
*   The roles of media and the arts

We are particularly interested in roundtables that discuss these issues 
and also
invite you to think of alternate formats that promote discussion.

Abstracts should be no longer than 250 words: Please attach a cover 
sheet that
includes your name, affiliation, location, and contact information.
