Large Group 9h30 – 11h00
- Reflecting on the experience of the Bologna study days, 22–24 May: what traces has this experience left? What can we learn from it?
- How does the difference culture reconfigure in vivo the group matrix and the group psychological apparatus, and what symbolizing effects are produced by the composition of the group, the theoretical traditions and the incorporated cultures of the participants?
- Is the frustration caused by the experience of the native language, aroused by the work in the non-native language and the exposure to unfamiliar non-translated languages, affecting the cultural envelope, unconscious alliances and identifications, and is it translated into linguistic relationships?
- Alternating large group / small group / psychodrama: setup, facilitation, organization. What made this alternation possible, and what would have been missing without it?
- Meeting with another association: links with local partners, participation of members and non-members… What lessons can be drawn for future study days on inter- and transcultural questions, and for our group-analytic approach?
