Die traditionelle Zweiteilung der Geschlechter wird inzwischen auch in der Psychoanalyse vor dem Hintergrund der Genderdebatte kritisch hinterfragt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Debatte um Freuds Vorstellung einer grundlegenden »konstitutionellen Bisexualität« eine Revision bisheriger psychoanalytischer Sexualtheorien ermöglicht mit dem Ziel, sich auch mit der Homosexualität, Transsexualität und Intersexualität angemessen auseinanderzusetzen. Die AutorInnen beleuchten, wie unter anderem sexuelle Vielfalt lebendig erfahrbar gemacht werden kann, ohne die damit einhergehenden Ängste und Unsicherheiten zu ignorieren.

Diagnosen sind in pädagogischen Kontexten seit jeher umstritten: Einerseits dienen sie als Grundlage fachlich begründeter Entscheidungen, andererseits werden sie als Kategorisierungen, die dem Einzelfall nicht gerecht werden, problematisiert. Die BeiträgerInnen des vorliegenden Bandes behandeln das spannungsvolle Verhältnis zwischen Kategorisieren und Fallverstehen mit Blick auf verschiedene pädagogische Handlungsfelder.

The book provides knowledge about feelings and their effect on the unconscious. This knowledge was acquired during more than 20 years of psychological counseling sessions in our own practice, in which we performed more than 8,000 hypnotisms. It deals with how and why our life is unconsciously controlled by our feelings. It explains the question why we cannot simply do everything the way we intend to do so, the way we want to do so. To what extent does our fate stem from this? Is there really a fate? Feelings in the unconscious decide whether I am chiefly happy or sad in my life, whether I am mainly successful or a loser in life, whether I am primarily content or discontent in life. How are feelings shaped in us as human beings? From what age do we humans have feelings and from when do these feelings take effect? Can feelings be transferred over generations? What role does a child’s upbringing play in the emotional world throughout a person's entire life? What would happen if the image of “good” authoritarian parenting were to crumble? Is a child’s upbringing perhaps a matter of suggestions and hypnosis unconsciously given to the child? Are well-intentioned pieces of advice also suggestions? What influence do upbringing and well-intentioned advice have on the quality of life in adulthood? To what extent do feelings influence the development of diseases, addictions, compulsions and certain behavior patterns? If feelings in the unconscious mind already determine whether one is mostly joyful or sad in life, is it reasonable to conclude that feelings can also cause depression, burnout and other diseases? From all these questions, the crucial question at some point arises: can I change the feelings in my unconscious so that I can be happy, content, successful and healthy in life? First of all: the answer is "yes"! This book presents an effective potential solution to that end.
