A Warm Welcome to the Journal of Analytical Psychology
We are very pleased to announce our XVth JAP conference and our first to be held in Latin America, organised with our colleagues in SBrPA, AJB & CLAPA. The title of the conference is: 'Civilisation in Transition - Clinical, Social and Academic Perspectives'. The conference will be held in Sao Paulo; originally to be held in July/August 2020 it has now been postponed until March 8th-11th 2021. The title is inspired by Volume 10 of Jung's Collected Works, 'Civilisation in Transition' ...
Martin Stone introduces the JAP Special Edition on the 'Who is my Jung?' Conference, originally held in November 2017. This Special Edition of the Journal, published in June 2018, includes all but one of the papers from this very successful conference. Martin gives an introduction, a brief history of the conference and an outline of the edition - click here for his video.
We are happy to report back from the very successful ‘Who is my Jung?’ conference that was organised and hosted by the Association of Jungian Analysts to celebrate forty years since their foundation. Not only was the conference a success in itself - it was sold out, indeed oversubscribed - but there was a wealth of excellent papers, all given in a generous spirit which reflected AJA’s generous intention in bringing all five London Jungian training societies together. We are also very pleased that the papers will be published in a forthcoming Special Edition of this Journal.

The first issue of the Journal of Analytical Psychology was published in January 1955. It was dedicated to C. G. Jung on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
To celebrate its 70th anniversary, the Journal will offer a conference to reflect on important past and present controversies and contemporary trends. The conference will start on Friday, 7th November, with a look back into the Journal’s history, its development over the decades and its present significance.
Saturday will be devoted to present-day developments and controversies. Speakers will explore the role of archetypes, affectivity, implicit memory, attachment and focus on the concept of cultural complexes. All the speakers are distinguished experts in these fields and have published articles on their topics in the JAP and elsewhere.
Recordings will be made available to those who are unable to attend on the day or who live in time zones which are unfavourable to live participation.
