FEELING LIKE A STATE: Desire, Denial, and the Recasting of Authority: By Davina Cooper. Cooper is also aware of the fact that her state conception "may prove less useful, diffusing the extent of coercive state power and blunting some of the ways governmental authority is exercised unequally.

Analysts who have treated psycho-somatic patients in depth, and as is usually necessary, for a long time, have been aware of the puzzling effects of separating affect from thought, leading as the French School of Marty has it, to a thin, two-dimensional type of thinking, which they labelled "operational thinking". Informed by the unique lessons for our generation of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the things we are all being reminded of is the intimate link between our minds and our bodies. Altogether, it seems that many analysts are being drawn to a Lombardi-type approach with difficult patients, where there have been early and perhaps radically important problems in maternal containment. As far as the psyche - or as Lombardi more accurately defines it the soma-psyche - is concerned, Rene Descartes, and before him Plato, have a lot to answer for. [Extracted from the article]
