Global Constellations of Affect and Memory: Emptiness, Experience, and Entanglement

Activity: Talk or presentation types › Invited talk

Description

This session will explore questions raised by a project that was first explored in ‘To see is to break an entanglement’ (Fierke and Mackay 2020) and deepened in the context of exploratory research, funded by the Human Family Unity Foundation, on a three-year project titled Mapping the Empire: The Contemporary Legacy of Historical Trauma and Forced Displacement. The inspiration for the project was an experience of ‘quantum effects’ arising in the context of an experiential systems modality (systemic constellations). The project explored the potential to adapt the modality to the analysis of global entanglements, and in particular the relationship between affective resonances of historical trauma in the past and memory in the present.
