“…While there are a number of articles within the psychoanalytic literature 13 that are implicitly engaged in identifying and challenging anti-Palestinian racism, for example, those that document the silencing of Palestinian perspectives, and the hostility that can meet attempts to describe the experiences of Palestinian clinicians (e.g., Khouri, 2018aKhouri, , 2018b, the phenomenon itself is seldom identified as such. Naming it will hopefully enable members of the profession to recognize its presence within themselves and in the behavior and speech of others.…”

Psychoanalytic discourse in relation to the situation in historic Palestine is subject to both ideologically‐based and anxiety‐driven inhibitions and restrictions that conflict with the discipline’s claim to be able to “stay with” difficult issues, to “think the unthinkable”. This situation is understood as a social pathology, and its impacts are explored through a literature review (explaining the paper’s length). It considers works that directly seek to protect Zionism from its critics, and texts whose purpose is to demonstrate the relevance of psychoanalytic concepts to the study of social injustice. The qualities of this contemporary discourse are considered alongside Freud’s comments on the conditions for freedom of thought within psychoanalysis, and the example he provided in his comments on politics and society. Rather than a psychoanalytic contribution to understanding an issue of public concern, the paper attempts to describe aspects of psychoanalytic culture itself. It aims to facilitate deeper reflection amongst clinicians, on both an individual and collective level, regarding their contemporary engagement with coloniality and the social responsibilities of the psychoanalytic community.
