{"title":"Psychological roots of the climate crisis: neoliberal exceptionalism and the culture of uncare","authors":"J. Herrmann","doi":"10.1080/0075417x.2023.2182817","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0075417x.2023.2182817","url":null,"abstract":"For over a decade, the psychoanalyst Sally Weintrobe has been speaking, writing, and organising forums about the climate emergency (e.g., Weintrobe, 2013, 2015). Her commitment to helping people face the alarming reality about the state of the planet reflects her impassioned love of the earth, its myriad life forms, and the inanimate world from which all life has emerged, over aeons of time. Weintrobe draws on her psychoanalytic knowledge in order to deepen our understanding of the sources of resistance to evidence about climate change. Her mastery of a huge range of subjects is extraordinary. She marshals arguments from many disciplines: these include, most centrally, political and economic theory (neoliberalism), but also geology, sociology, ecology, and evolutionary theory. The book furnishes the reader ready access to a vast and interdisciplinary range of material, and provides helpful references for all aspects of the problem. But its principle aim is to help us manage our resistance, as individuals, as social groups, and professionally as psychoanalytic workers, in recognising our deadly and death-denying complicity, which minimises the overwhelming evidence that we are living in an age of climate breakdown. Weintrobe refers to our complicity, with denial as ‘the climate bubble’, and develops the notion of Exceptionalism (cf. exceptionalism), a rigid psychological mindset which is largely responsible for the climate crisis. To help us with this work, which requires a receptivity to potentially overwhelming information, Weintrobe skilfully uses very short chapters, unadorned language, and apt and interesting, often witty, examples. She makes a potentially difficult and complex argument interesting and easy to follow, and does this for the one central motivation that drives the book: to help us emerge from the climate bubble. I am grateful for her amazing grasp of how economic forces have led us by the nose into the slumber of ‘buy buy buy’, of how our desires have been fired by large corporations, and of how our ignorance of the social injustice this depends on has been so successfully camouflaged. Weintrobe does not diminish our complicity with the injustice of the global north’s dominance over the developing world, as she writes:","PeriodicalId":43581,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY","volume":"49 1","pages":"161 - 164"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48157191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But what do we mean when we refer to the ‘external environment’, are we referring to the maternal, paternal, or family environment? Or are we referring to broader aspects, such as culture, class, race, racism, inequality and poverty, the impact of Brexit and immigration controls, wars and the climate emergency? A common experience many of us as child psychotherapists have faced, when raising such issues, is to be told that our focus has strayed away to the external world, when our attention, as psychoanalytic practitioners, should be on the internal world . . . There is also a wider question we are curious about and want to explore further: is there any meaningful division between internal and external in psychoanalytic thinking? How do we think of this division? And if we believe – as we do in the JCP – that the external and the political should be at the centre of our thinking, rather than an occasional ‘add on’, how do we ensure this is the case? Frosh and Baraitser (2008) (cited in Morgan, 2021) claim that it is an important political act to challenge the theoretical division of what phenomenologically cannot be divided as ‘the warp and the weft’ (p. 383) of the fabric of being. However, Morgan also puts forward Hoggett’s (2008) challenge to this, which is that ‘internal and external worlds, while overlapping and mutually constituting, are also irreducible to one another, each governed by its own rules of structure formation . . . the hyphen in psychosocial signifies a difference that cannot be dissolved’ (p. 383). Whatever each therapist’s position on this debate, all our work is inevitably done within the context of myriad psycho-social elements, coming from us, from our patients, and from the wider environments around us. We are keen to think both about why this is a challenging area, and how we can work towards improvements in our practice.","PeriodicalId":43581,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY","volume":"49 1","pages":"1 - 6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44841909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a psychoanalytic lens, the author considers the legacy effects of Covid-19 restrictions and the atmosphere of heightened anxiety and danger, on the families who welcomed their first child in 2020 or 2021. The paper brings into focus the simultaneous experience of increased isolation and the withdrawal of support that would ordinarily be offered to new parents, along with the increased opportunities for closeness and early bonding this might bring, and considers how these factors might interrelate. It considers the changes to fatherhood that the pandemic created, and examines the benefits as well as pitfalls of the unusual circumstances brought about by successive lockdowns in the UK. The paper also explores the role that child psychotherapy has, as a profession, to examine and understand this experience for new parents and children born in the pandemic.","PeriodicalId":43581,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY","volume":"49 1","pages":"24 - 38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48498035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, to publish ethically, we must also be aware of the ‘unboundaried’ nature of the current digital world, and the implication that what we write will be widely accessible, including being accessible to those patients we are writing about. The upshot of this is the need to seek informed and signed consent from those patients we write about and offer to provide them with a draft of what we write. This contribution considers the difficulties in seeking informed consent, and offers some suggestions for dealing with these difficulties.","PeriodicalId":43581,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY","volume":"48 1","pages":"406 - 415"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45086510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With sensitivity and rigour, the authors engage with the question of how we might go about gaining informed consent and other important aspects of writing and publishing clinical material. Anagnostaki (2022) draws our attention to the importance of ‘trust’ in the psychoanalytic relationship with our patients and their families, and colleagues. This put me in mind of a parent I got to know very well, over several years, in a previous role working in a hospital school, before my clinical training, and whose nursery aged child I had imagined I’d like to write about one day. When I approached the parent about the possibility of gaining consent to publish, it was given with total compliance, verging on passivity. They agreed I could write whatever I liked about the child, now or in the future. As Anagnostaki asks in relation to ‘Jason’s’ family, was ‘agreement’ in fact a sort of denial? And if so, if it was a way of avoiding something, how can this be understood as ‘informed’ in any way? This concerned me. In my case, I had not asked the child how they felt about the idea of me writing about them one day. In retrospect, these events had undermined my own trust in my relationship to the family. My experience of trying to communicate my ambition to write about them posed questions in my mind about the power differentials between a professional and a family, who had become institutionalised, having been in hospital for months at a time, dependent on professionals. Whilst still working actively with a patient, Holloway (2022) suggests that one way of engaging our patients in the process of gaining informed consent and writing for publication is in the collaborative act of ‘co-writing’. This offers an opportunity for the experience to become an aspect of the therapeutic encounter. Yet, Holloway acknowledges that this will not always be appropriate, particularly within the context of abuse or serious psychotic illness. This reminded me of one of my own intensive training cases. I’d often had the thought, ‘what a brilliant case this would be to share with colleagues’, and yet I felt visceral unease about even entertaining the idea. ‘In whose interest would this be?’ I thought when probing deeper. There will be instances when we need to face the reality that not all patients’ stories can be told, for important clinical and ethical reasons. To get around these issues we may create composite cases.","PeriodicalId":43581,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY","volume":"48 1","pages":"416 - 421"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45012645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dynamics of reading or hearing others’ clinical work are described and discussed.

We used population based data from the UK Cohort Study on 10,904 14 year olds. Multivariate regression and path used to examine associations between social media use and depressive symptoms. with 1–3 daily use: 3 < 5 h 26% increase in scores vs h for and Methods: The data were from 2 nationally representative Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (2010, 2014) surveys across 44 European and North American countries. Psychosomatic health was assessed using 8 complaints and dichotomized as high or low. Discretionary time spent on passive (e.g., TV) and mentally active (e.g., electronic games, computer use) screen-based activities was categorized into 3 groups. Data were analyzed in 2021. Results: The study included 414,489 adolescents (average age, 13.6 [SD=1.63] years; 51.1% girls). Multilevel modeling showed that psychosomatic complaints increased monotonically once all forms of screen time exceeded 2 hours/day. Adolescents reporting high (>4 hours/day) TV time, compared with those reporting low (≤2 hours/day), had higher odds of reporting psychosomatic complaints with 67% higher odds (OR=1.67, 95% CI=1.62, 1.72) in boys and 71% (OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.66, 1.75) in girls. High electronic game use was associated with psychosomatic complaints, with odds being 78% higher in boys (OR=1.78, 95% CI=1.73, 1.84) and 88% higher in girls (OR=1.88, 95% CI=1.82, 1.94). Similar associations were found between computer use and psychosomatic complaints. Conclusions: Passive and mentally active screen time are adversely associated with psychosomatic complaints in a dose-dependent manner, with associations slightly stronger for active than passive screen time. This study supports limiting any type of screen time, either passive or active, to 2 hours/day to foster of used. during bedtime hours to minimize any harmful effects of screen time on sleep and wellbeing. Future research better account for the methodological limitations of the extant studies, and seek to better understand the magnitude and mechanisms of the association.
