Research Seminar Knowing the Psyche in the Middle East and North Africa (20th and 21st century)History, Social Science, Testimonies
This seminar reflects on new scholarship about the psyche as object of knowledge and care in the Middle East and North Africa. It aims to highlight a polycentric approach to the history of psychiatry, psychology, and psychoanalysis. Thus, by focusing on the 20thand 21st centuries, it looks at these dynamics in post-independence states in their historical depth. It also fosters a conversation between studies of what is usually known as medicine, religion and popular knowledge.
Sessions with social science researchers and mental health professionals will explore such subject matters as knowledge production, actors’ trajectories, health policies, practices of care, and representations – all elements of a regional history of norms that relate to interiority and mental health.
Seminars take place on the last Wednesday of each month starting in April 2024, between 6 and 7:30pm (Cairo time). The working languages will be English and French.
