“…In a later comment on cultural complexes in Russia, Pourtova (2013) highlighted the regressive aspects of nostalgia in the post‐Soviet era; Tsivinsky (2014) considered the clinical applications of the spatial metaphor of Utopia (with its longing for a rescuer seen as a cultural complex) and Bortuleva (2014) highlighted ‘certain [specific] psycholinguistic features of the Russian cultural context’ (p. 531) that affected psychotherapy. And Connolly (2011) has presented her experience in working directly with the cultural trauma of Russian patients, specifically focussing on the use of reconstruction.…”

This paper explores the issue of cultural trauma, which is an area of concern in psychology generally and has emerged as one within the International Association for Analytical Psychology's Router training programme. A summary of responses to the issues of cultural trauma and complexes (alongside cultural differences) within analytical psychology are presented, followed by an overview of findings from the IAAP's evaluation of the Router training programme. These findings are then aligned with contemporary sociological research. The significant issues involved in healing cultural trauma seem to be 'working through', as well as the place of imagination, dreamwork, symbolism and metaphor. Research in Poland has specifically highlighted the importance of good governance, economic vitality, personal and social capital (as in education and social participation), a meaning system, certain external contingencies, channels of mobility and ritualism.

“…Elena Bortuleva () describes the process when a caregiver gives the baby the fullness it requires, drop by drop, to transform pitanije (nurturing with food) into vospitanije (nurturing with truly human experiences). Our nurturing has allowed supervisees to be and feel nourished, then to nourish themselves and later, to nurture their own supervisees .…”

Supervising away from home: clinical, cultural and professional challenges

This paper explores some challenges of supervising clinical work of trainees, known as 'routers', who live in countries with diverse cultural, social and political traditions, and the analysts who travel to supervise them. It is written as an evolving dialogue between the authors, who explore together the effects of their own culture of origin, and in particular the legacy and values of their own training institutes on the styles and models of analytic supervision. Their dialogue is framed around the meaning of home and experiences of homesickness for analysts working away from home in an interactive field of strangeness in countries where analytical psychology is a relatively new discipline. The authors outline the findings from their own qualitative survey, where other supervisors working abroad, and those they have supervised, describe their experiences and their encounters with difference. The dialogue ends with both authors discussing what they have learned about teaching and supervising abroad, the implications for more flexible use of Jungian concepts, and how such visits have changed their clinical practice in their home countries.

Cet article explore certains défis dans la supervision du travail clinique des étudiants, appelés « routers », qui vivent dans des pays avec des traditions culturelles, sociales et politiques diverses, par des analystes qui voyagent pour aller les superviser. Il se présente sous la forme d’un dialogue interactif entre les deux auteurs, qui explorent ensemble les effets de leur propre culture d’origine et, en particulier, l’héritage et les valeurs de leurs propres instituts de formation portant sur les styles et les modèles de supervision analytique. Leur dialogue s’articule autour du sens du chez-soi et des expériences de mal du pays chez les analystes qui travaillent loin de chez eux dans un champ interactif d’étrangetés dans les pays où la psychologie analytique est une discipline relativement nouvelle. Les auteurs exposent leurs propres constatations qualitatives tandis que d’autres superviseurs travaillant à l’étranger et ceux qu’ils ont supervisés décrivent leurs expériences et leurs rencontres avec la différence. Le dialogue se termine avec la discussion entre les deux auteurs sur ce qu’ils ont appris sur l’enseignement et la supervision à l’étranger, les implications liées à une utilisation plus souple des concepts jungiens et la façon dont ces visites ont changé leur pratique clinique dans leurs pays d’origine.
