This is our Jung Memorial Lecture. Around the world Jung Societies, Centers and Institutes do Memorial Lectures to commemorate the death of Jung on June 6, 1961. We seek a world-known, senior analyst to do this lecture and we have been fortunate to have Thomas Singer this year. His work is complex and satisfying. We are delighted to welcome him for this special occasion.
Over the past three decades, Dr. Thomas Singer has been exploring themes related to the collective psyche and cultural complexes. These themes come alive and are potent both in the individual and in groups, and have currently gripped our political processes with a vengeance.
In his talk, Dr. Singer will explore how a dystopian mood has taken hold of the world and what might break its stranglehold on our capacity to imagine a better future, or any future at all.
