Human life demands the fullest account of itself -- lest we fall into simplistic reductions, corrosive divisiveness, and calcified identifications. The Psychology & the Other Conference is a biennial convening space that models what it points to -- a sandbox meant to allow for the play of languages, ideas, and formulations across fields and disciplines. This year, we come together virtually.

Psychology & the Other consistently produces one of the most creative and mutative intellectual spaces I know of. The conferences emerge in a unique matrix of domains and interests; cultural studies, psychology, psychoanalysis, theology, and philosophy. Being in this intellectual community is always, for me, such an inspiring mixture of demanding content and wonderful contacts.
