La Paz entre judíos y cristianos. El aporte de Juan Pablo II, a la paz interreligiosa en el siglo xx / Peace between Jews and Christians. John Paul II's Contribution to Interreligious Peace in the 20th Century

Resumen Juan Pablo II no sólo expresó sus ideas políticas y sociales a través de Encíclicas y discursos, sino también a través de la diplomacia y diversas acciones cargadas de simbolismo. Acciones que tuvieron por objetivo mostrar como ejemplo a los pertenecientes de ambas religiones, la paz subyacente entre sus líderes religio sos. De lo anterior, aunque muchos datos biográficos y logros han sido tenidos en cuenta por los biógrafos de Wojtyla, el acercamiento generado entre cristia nos y judíos es quizás uno de los puntos menos profundizados en las reflexiones históricas sobre la labor de Wojtyla.

Abstract Not only did John Paul II express his political and social ideas through Encycli cals and speeches, but also through diplomacy and various actions loaded with symbolism. These actions were aimed at showing as an example to the mem bers of both religions, the underlying peace between their religious leaders. From the above, although many biographical data and achievements have been taken into account by Wojtyla's biographers, the rapprochement generated be tween Christians and Jews is perhaps one of the least deepened points in the historical reflections on Wojtyla's work.

The Experience of Being Jewish: Living with Antisemitism

Abstract In an anonymous online study of 242 Jewish-identified participants (71 men, 163 women, 8 other; mean age = 37.8 years) living in ethnically diverse communities we found levels of antisemitism significantly associated with depression, survivor guilt proneness, and self-hate. Involvement in the Jewish community was significantly associated with life satisfaction even when adjusting for the effects of discrimination. A subsample of 124 responded to open ended questions with narratives. Thirty percent indicated feeling unsafe when identifying as Jewish.

Resumen En un estudio online y anónimo de 242 participantes identificados como judíos (71 hombres, 163 mujeres, 8 otros; media de edad = 37,8 años) que viven en comunidades étnicamente diversas, encontramos niveles de antisemitismo significativamente asociados con la depresión, la propensión a la culpa del sobreviviente y el odio a sí mismo. La participación en la comunidad judía se asoció significativamente con la satisfacción con la vida, incluso cuando se ajusta a los efectos de la discriminación. Una sub muestra de 124 personas respondió a preguntas abiertas con narrativas. El treinta por ciento indicó sentirse inseguro al identificarse como judío.

Inching towards wholeness: C.G. Jung and his relationship to Judaism.

The evolution of Jung's relationship with Judaism is interpreted as reflecting aspects of the individuation journey over the course of a long life. The progress and limitations of his public positions and personal relationships are explored through his published work and correspondence. Perspectives from relational psychoanalysis and Jewish philosophy are used to amplify Jung's understanding of Jewish, and specifically Kabbalistic, text and image. Dimensions of the author's own journey toward greater acceptance of his own Jewish soul is also considered, along with the wider contemporary relevance of these themes.

Political and clinical developments in analytical psychology, 1972-2014: subjectivity, equality and diversity-inside and outside the consulting room.

Utilizing Jung's idea of theory as a 'personal confession', the author charts his own development as a theorist, establishing links between his personal history and his ideas. Such links include his relationship with both parents, his sexuality, his cultural heritage, and his fascination with Tricksters and with Hermes. There follows a substantial critical interrogation of what the author discerns as the two main lines of clinical theorizing in contemporary analytical psychotherapy: interpretation of transference-countertransference, and the relational approach. His conclusion is that neither is superior to the other and neither is in fact adequate as a basis for clinical work. The focus then shifts to explore a range of political and social aspects of the clinical project of analytical psychology: economic inequality, diversity within the professional field, and Jung's controversial ideas about Jews and Africans. The author calls for an apology from the 'Jungian community' for remarks about Africans analogous to the apology already issued for remarks about Jews. The paper is dedicated to the author's friend Fred Plaut (1913-2009).
