Something Clem said has stuck with me for weeks now and I don’t know what to do with it; something like whether psychoanalysis ought to be socially transformative to justify its existence. I’d always assumed it was its own justification, that its capacity for change was baked in. Isn’t there necessarily potential for society if we work with people one at a time? The collective is comprised of individuals, after all. Or have I just been kidding myself, is it all just voyeurism?
