This multi-method research project by Professor Raluca Soreanu examines the social history of Balint groups.The project focuses on the psychoanalytic contribution to the medical sciences.

This interdisciplinary project breaks ground by telling an alternative radical history of psychoanalysis. It traces the metamorphoses of Freud’s couch, happening when psychoanalysis becomes entangled with emancipatory movements and liberation struggles, and engages with social inequalities based on race, class, gender, poverty, and other forms of marginalization.

This project explores the experiences of shame, pride or protest amongst lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer (LGBTQ) relationship partners around ‘holding hands’ in public.
