The 'Necessary Foreignness' of Psychoanalysis with Mariano Horenstein, PhD (Cordoba, Argentina)

Mariano Horenstein, a distinguished psychoanalyst from Cordoba, Argentina, discusses the 'necessary foreignness' in psychoanalysis. He emphasizes how being an outsider enhances understanding of the unconscious, encouraging a vibrant exploration of identity. Horenstein contrasts traditional teaching with the deeper insights gained through analysis, noting the significance of asymmetry in this process. He also shares a whimsical tale of a polar bear as a metaphor for migration and examines the intersection of psychoanalysis with geography, advocating for a fresh interpretative lens in therapeutic practices.
