Beginning in 2003, a seminar or lecture course connected to the Husserl Archives has been occasionally offered by the Department of Philosophy at the New School for Social Research. Scholars and advanced students in the field of phenomenology and phenomenological philosophy have been invited to present and discuss their work.
The topic of the fall 2015 seminar will be: Intersections between Phenomenology and Psychoanalysis. This year’s seminar will place the works of Husserl, Heidegger, and Levinas in conversation with psychoanalytic thought through a close reading of selected texts. Our speakers this year will be James Dodd, Rudolf Bernet, and Alan Bass.
(Prof. Dodd’s paper will be circulated in advance – along with a selection from Bataille’s Theory of Religion. We are also soliciting questions for this portion of the seminar. Email P.J. Gorre [gorrp967@newschool.edu] to receive the appropriate materials and to send your questions).
9th Meeting of the SIPP-ISPP
Our next meeting on ‘Any Body, Anybody : The Matter of the Unconscious’ will take place from November 9-12, 2016, at the New School for Social Research, New York.
With this title, we invite reflections on the body and the materiality of the unconscious. How does psychoanalysis help us think about how bodies become laden with and deprived of identity in a social and political space? The term “Anybody” also asks us to think about how the unconscious is not bound to a known identity but rather emerges from and belongs to a “nobody” that is nevertheless material; the phrase “Any body,” conjures up the psychic ambiguities subtending the way sexuality affects every body including but not limited to trans-sexual bodies. This conference also offers us an opportunity to think about how the targets of recent acts of terrorism are construed as “anybodies” and/or “nobodies.”

What Explains the Spin-Statistics Connection?
The spin-statistics connection plays an essential role in explanations of non-relativistic phenomena associated with both field-theoretic and non-field-theoretic systems (for instance, it explains the electronic structure of solids and the behavior of Einstein-Bose condensates and superconductors). However, it is only derivable within the context of relativistic quantum field theory (RQFT) in the form of the Spin-Statistics Theorem; and moreover, there are multiple, mutually incompatible ways of deriving it. This essay attempts to determine the sense in which the spin-statistics connection can be said to be an essential property in RQFT, and how it is that an essential property of one type of theory can figure into fundamental explanations offered by other, inherently distinct theories.
