I must have first met Tom Ormay late in the 1980s. I found him a little difficult to understand at first but quite quickly grew to like his quiet manner that at times could also boil up and over when he met too much bureaucratic questioning whenever he had to propose something formally and he was then met with blockhead opposition. Otherwise, he was a gentle man who came at the prevailing situation in a quiet approach and occasionally with an outburst of temper, which was never born long and never with ill-will. He was a poet who was quiet about his poetry, yet who adorned his book on ‘Nos’ with many poetic quotations—you don’t see many of these in books on group analysis or even psychoanalysis.

In the 100 years since Freud’s Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego (1921) was published, much has changed and much has stayed the same. This article explores the resonance of Freud’s book with contemporary issues around inclusion and exclusion, masses and assemblies, and the question of how a practice of ethical relationality can emerge across a shared social terrain. Drawing on concepts from psychosocial studies and leaning especially on Judith Butler’s recent work on assemblies and on grievability, I argue that patterns of division and exclusion, notably along racialized lines, emerge from insistently violent responses to vulnerability. Understanding the intricate intersection between what are usually differentiated as ‘personal’ and ‘social’ domains in ways recognizable within group analysis, is an important move towards contesting this violence and towards a situation in which all lives become grievable.

Cosmin Chita from Zurich and I, Carla Penna from Brazil, in association with David Glyn, the president of the Group Analytic Society International and Linde Wotton chair of the Scientific Committee are pleased to introduce the 46th Autumn Workshop. This year we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Freud’s Massenpsychologie und Ich-Analyse translated into English as Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego (1921). To delve into the topic we are grateful to count on an international staff. I would like to celebrate in this event the memory of our dearest Malcolm Pines.

I was pleased to be invited to review this book at a time when, having just finished off co-editing an anthology of 20 chapters describing the experience of growing up second generation after the Holocaust, I was still deeply immersed in this subject matter1. I had also been inspired by hearing Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela talking about Aesthetics of Memory, Narratives of Repair at a conference in South Africa. History, Trauma and Shame has an unusual focus in that it draws conclusions about the long-term consequences of political violence and how it might be worked with. The content of the book is prefaced by two dedications at the beginning: one to David Reusmann, a child survivor of the Holocaust and the other to Desmond Tutu, who needs no introduction. The editor, Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela is from South Africa and together with her background in academic research on trauma, memory and reconciliation, she provides a wider context than is usual for the meticulously described experience of the authors from Germany, who are associated with The Study Group on Intergenerational Consequences of the Holocaust (formerly PAKH e.V.).

The current political, social and economic landscape in psychotherapy is permeated by neoliberalism and requirements for diversity and equality. Nevertheless, racism occurred in the Institute of Group Analysis (IGA). Using Institutional Ethnography, this study examined whether non-discrimination of clients, students and group analysts is nowadays a lived actuality. Unfortunately, a disjuncture between claims of non-discrimination and lived experiences was identified. Unconscious prejudices, hidden discrimination and neoliberalist affiliations perpetuate white discriminatory practices. Marginalized clients, students and group analysts remain outsiders, even though the PPP Working Group has made some positive changes. I suggested that documents should be revised, contemporary theory be included in diversity seminars and diversity frameworks be researched.

My evocative and analytical autoethnography explored the lived experience of diversity during group analytic training and as group analyst. Bakhtin’s dialogism was used to analyse texts. Data analysis has revealed pervasive experiences of racism and discomfort about social class and gender disparity. Religion was not included in my training and achieving feminine autonomy was difficult in group analysis. Linked to patriarchy, colonialism, and perhaps the Holocaust, my analysis suggests that we need to rethink gender and religious certainties. Our morality leaves much to be desired when we do not embrace polyphony, diverse voices. Embracing diversity may also entail discarding the Oedipus Complex. Group analytic training institutes should consider different fee structures so that disadvantaged people can join our elitist circle.
