Presidential Symposium: Minding the Markets: How Psychoanalysis Can Help to Build New Economics and Finance Thinking

Speakers: Robert A. Johnson, MA, PhD (Exec Director of the Institute of New Economic Thinking); Professor David Tuckett (London, England); Warren R. Procci, MD, President (Pasadena, CA)

APsaA’s international colleague, David Tuckett, has sought to contribute to the development of a new field of “emotional finance” with a specific interest in understanding the recent and continuing financial crisis. Human emotion has a critical impact on financial markets and, until very recently, economic theories have failed to take this into account. At the heart of the worst financial crisis in decades is a failure to organize markets in a way that puts controls on the very human emotion and behavior which trading unleashes. Robert Johnson and David Tuckett each speak on this subject and then lead a discussion concerning how psychological and psychoanalytic concepts can offer considerable assistance in understanding the sometimes irrational behavior of people and markets.

University Forum: The Theban Plays of Sophocles

Speakers: David Konstan, PhD, Professor, Department of Classics, New York University; Elizabeth Brobrick, PhD, Visiting Scholar, Wesleyan University; Chairs & Melvin R. Lansky, MD (Los Angeles, CA); Leon Wurmser, MD (Towson, MD)

The inquiries posed by the presenters in this forum pave the way for a psychoanalytic inquiry into the character’s identity of the hero and his relationship to the dramatic forces in these plays which set these tragedies in relentless motion toward their fateful outcomes. Two distinguished scholar-teachers, David Konstan, PhD, Professor in the Department of Classics at NYU, and Elizabeth Brobrick, PhD, a Visiting Scholar with Wesleyan University, provide interpretative comments for the audience, while Melvin Lansky and Leon Wurmser moderate the follow-up discussion with the audience.
