Open Call of Submissions | “Sport and Psychoanalysis”, a new section of the Cogent Social Sciences journal (Routledge) dedicated to exploring the intersections between sport and psychoanalysis
At first glance, Sport and Psychoanalysis may appear worlds apart: sport is associated with physicality, competition, and entertainment, while psychoanalysis explores the unconscious, desire, and the contradictions that structure subjectivity. Yet, it is precisely this apparent disparity that makes their relationship so compelling. By engaging with the psychic, cultural, and social dimensions of sport, the journal offers a critical space for examining how sport both reflects and unsettles the psychic and social structures that shape our lives.
