Abstract
This being so, she can anticipate the apprehension that the political vision implied in her work might echo the somewhat medievalist (and even totalitarian) concept of the king as father, if tampered by the characters attributed to mothers and caregivers. In a different, more anecdotal and present-oriented register, does the experience of lockdown and the extended period of work from home that many people went through during the Covid years necessarily strengthen their desire to see the life of work and citizenship as continuous with the constant emotional availability practiced in the family? Such questions are of course inevitable when the complexity of the issues the book discusses is considered. They do not in any way detract from the book’s overall value and may actually attest to its ability to provoke further thought. Kellond’s contribution remains erudite, original and informative, a welcome and timely addition to the selection of works on the political impact of relations-based psychoanalysis.
