Ha pasado un siglo desde que Víctor Frankl comenzó a desarrollar su pensamiento, a raíz de su trabajo con la juventud vienesa en las décadas de 1920 y 1930 en centros de asesoramiento juvenil para la prevencion del suicidio. Su diagnostico, no obstante, conserva una inquietante similitud con el presente: una juventud carente de intereses, presa del vacio existencial, con un desgano general por la vida. En estos primeros escritos reunidos ya es posible vislumbrar el germen del binomio "logoterapia y analisis existencial", asi como una concepcion de la existencia entendida como unidad radical y totalidad pluridimensional. Este libro nos permite apreciar la sensibilidad y agudeza de un joven psicologo que supo elaborar una vision del hombre que aun hoy se presenta como una fuente inagotable de optimismo y esperanza.

En un mundo atravesado por el dolor y la brutalidad, provocados por golpes de Estado, enfrentamientos civiles, ocupaciones militares y guerras sangrientas, esta obra intenta dar respuesta a la preocupacion por la cura y la subversion del trauma colectivo y de su detonador: la violencia misma. El analisis parte del dispositivo psicoanalitico clinico, asi como de los descubrimientos freudianos relevantes para la filosofia politica y la etica, pero sin dejar de lado la apremiante refle xion sobre las vias de resistencia y justicia de nuevos posibles proyectos politicos. Retoma la idea de que la ocupacion de las calles y del espacio publico, asi como cualquier otro tipo de manifestacion, tiene un poder performativo que puede lograr subvertir algunos de los efectos nefastos de la violencia y la crueldad de las que nuestras sociedades son victimas.En una invitacion a abrir espacios colectivos de escucha radical, la propuesta no se constrine a la mera desaparicion de sintomas patologicos, sino al efecto del cuidado constante de los unos por los otros a traves de los ejercicios de la narracion y la protesta. Narrar para representar y representar para narrar son areas urgentes para resistir la violencia. Porque nombrar la violencia del pasado y del presente hace justicia historica y, de alguna manera, puede darnos herramientas y estrategias para resistir a la del futuro. Asi, a lo largo de este libro, se insiste en que la tramitacion del trauma es colectiva y que su subversion y resistencia politicas son imposibles sin una escucha hospitalaria de la esfera comun y publica.

¿Ves imposible decir que no o llevar la contraria a los demás? ¿Te bloqueas normalmente al hablar en público? ¿Sueles evitar las actividades sociales o profesionales por miedo al rechazo? ¿Te sonrojas con facilidad sin poder controlarlo?La timidez es una realidad tremendamente extendida. Muchos la consideran una dificultad anecdotica, benigna o incluso agradable, pero en un grado excesivo afecta a una de cada dos personas en los paises occidentales. Tanto es asi que ha sido objeto de numerosas investigaciones en los ultimos años, con la intencion de comprenderla mejor y tratarla con mas eficacia. Puede ser visible y observable por quienes rodean a la persona que la padece, sumiendola en un difuso sentimiento de vergu?enza; pero tambien puede pasar desapercibida, y entonces sera causa de sufrimiento interno. Puede extenderse a casi todas las situaciones cotidianas, o afectar solo a aspectos muy concretos de nuestra vida. En este libro, Christophe Andre describe esta forma de ansiedad social que muchas veces escapa a cualquier tipo de categorizacion, ofreciendo herramientas concretas para comprenderla, aceptarla e incluso combatirla cuando no nos permite vivir una vida plena, acorde con nuestras aspiraciones.
