Organisers: Raluca Soreanu & Ivan Ward

Money and its circulation have a fantasy dimension. At the same time, money is an important aspect of how care can be offered and organised.

In this conference, we are guided by a series of questions about the paradoxes and opportunities of money. How do money and ideas circulate in our times? How can we make sense of alternative and anti-capitalist forms of circulation, and how do these appear in different fields of practice? What can psychoanalysis offer for understanding the issue of money? What does a psychosocial theory of value look like? What is the relationship between political economy and libidinal economy? Finally, are we traversing a crisis of care, and if so, what are some creative attempts to initiate new forms of circulation, amounting to economies of care?

We engage with these questions in an interdisciplinary conversation that brings together psychoanalysts, anthropologists, historians, and socio-political theorists to discuss the paradoxes of money and to explore ideas of value and circulation. Please visit the Freud Museum website for more information.

Speakers include: Giuseppe Cocco, Raluca Soreanu, Deivison Mendes Faustino, Dany Nobus, Dorothée Bonnigal-Katz, Tales Ab’Saber, Daniel Feldmann, Deanne Bell, Guilaine Kinouani, Ian Parker, Barry Watt, Ana Carolina Minozzo, Lizaveta van Munsteren, Ana Tomcic, Jordan Osserman, Francisco J. González.
