More social and political contributions of Jungian psychology:

This is the third in the acclaimed series of Analysis and Activism conferences organised under the auspices of the International Association for Analytical Psychology. It is no exaggeration to say that the need for creative and imaginative approaches to the social and political problems the world faces is urgent. The conference will present new and fresh Jungian approaches to the social and political domains, but there will also be a chance to explore how the contributions have evolved since the first two conferences in London in 2014 and Rome in 2015. The programme of invited speakers contains some well-known activists and writers alongside some relative newcomers.

Conference venue: St. Anna church, Prague

On the logo of this conference you can see St. Wenceslav (Václav. 907-935), who is Czech patron and who was also our king and politician trying to cooperate peacefully with nations abroad and reinforce Christianity into our country. The legend says that after his assassination by his Brother Boleslav, Wenceslav´s remains were exhibited in St. Anna church, where our conference takes places.

On display also in St. Anna church, were remains of another well-known Czech politician, Václav Havel (1936-2011), who came from underground, who worked towards the fall of Iron Curtain and then became the president of freed country.

Václav Havel and his wife Dagmar also established foundation VIZE 97 which rents St. Anna church for organising charitable events and providing venue for conferences as FORUM 2000 and now Analysis and Activism III are. The foundation VIZE 97 also kindly subsidises our event which therefore can takes place in this spiritual place right in the beautiful old quarter in the center of Prague. It is associated with Vaclav Havel. There are many stylish restaurants, cafes and bars in the vicinity. Prague Crossroads (St. Anne’s Church): www.prazskakrizovatka.cz
