CERFI Analysis Everywhere. Militancy, Research, Architecture and Psychiatry - Susana Caló and Godofredo Enes Pereira
£0.00
CERFI - the Centre for Institutional Study, Research, and Training - wasn't your typical think tank. Co-founded by Felix Guattari, it set out to bring the disruptive insights of institutional psychotherapy into the heart of militant and professional organizing. Their wager? That every collective needs a form of analytic militancy: a way to navigate the unconscious forces that shape power, desire, and resistance from within.
This was the birth of schizoanalysis outside of the clinical setting: a practice that shifts focus from the individual psyche to the collective assemblages that compose our lives. What are the deeper machinic drives shaping our actions? What forms of desire power our institutions? CERFI's work took these questions seriously, designing communal infrastructures, building popular research teams, and launching Recherches, a journal that amplified voices from revolutionary struggles, childcare centres, classrooms, psychiatric wards, and beyond.
Analysis Everywhere dives into the rich archive of CERFI's radical experiments: conceptual, editorial, and lived. It invites us to imagine a practice where the unconscious isn't repressed but mobilized. Where analysis isn't an afterthought but a vital tool for political transformation.
