Abstract
ABSTRACT This discussion focuses on two questions: How does this psychoanalytic paper help social scientists broaden their understanding of the psychic (as opposed to the social and political) experiences of displacement and citizenship? How might the clinical and theoretical psychoanalytic insights in this paper benefit from a dialogue with social scientists? I argue that Lisa Beritzhoff’s paper offers non-psychoanalytic researchers exciting and innovative ways to conceptualize the disempowering psychic effects of displacement. Social science research offers a focus on the complex variety of political experiences that a person or group may have along the journey to safety, and how an uneven array of functional and structural dimensions complicates the psychic experience of displacement.
