Extra Info | : | The Site for Contemporary Psychoanalysis - Annual Conference 2025 Speakers: Richard Gilman-Opalsky, Jon Greenaway, Billie Cashmore, Alexander Stoffel, Jim O’Neill, Foluke Taylor and Anouchka Grose Utopia promises us an ideal paradox consisting of a limit and an opening: a limit to our suffering and frustrations and an open road to the unimpeded pursuit of our desires. It embodies an unconscious dialectic — a paradoxical symbol standing both as a boundary and as an opening. Utopia functions as a projection of an ideal state where suffering and frustration are contained within a symbolic limit, yet simultaneously, it beckons the subject toward an unbounded horizon of desire's fulfilment. |
