It is that fits-and-starts progress which is so unpredictable.&nbsp; And what I keep wondering is what psychoanalysis can say about that movement forrward in creative progess, with the halting moments of destruction which take centuries to recover from, and to embark on a further step forward.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Any thoughts on how the unconscious of individuals can agglomerate into national and supernational threats to the future of our cultures will be interesting food for thought<br />&#8203;<br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
