鄭義：南方暴雨成災 要破中國和世界紀錄 方興未艾 後果兇險 (2020-6-23)
https://tw.aboluowang.com/2020/0623/1468218.html
6月2日持續至今的南方暴雨，是今年以來國內18次強降雨中強度最大的一次。
這次強降雨涉及11個省（區、市），100毫米以上的降雨（也就是大暴雨）面積達70萬餘平方公里，250毫米以上的降雨（也就是特大暴雨）面積達9萬餘平方公里，400毫米以上的降雨面積達2.4萬餘平方公里。這個400毫米以上，我就不知道該怎麼叫了，破表了。在廣東惠州龍潭鎮，累計降雨量一度超過1140毫米，可能離世界紀錄不太遠了。總而言之，這次強降雨來勢兇猛，方興未艾，後果難測。
另據媒體報道，在廣西陽朔縣，暴雨致使9個鄉鎮出現洪澇災害，受災人口逾15萬人，全縣酒店民宿進水受損1000餘家，商業鋪面進水5000餘間，旅遊景區景點受損30餘家。陽朔縣城的甲秀橋上，停滿了大大小小的避澇車輛。
6月12日，水利部副部長葉建春在新聞發布會上表示，中國已全面進入汛期，共有148條河流發生超過警戒水位以上的洪水，珠江流域的西江和北江均發生今年第1號洪水，局部地區發生了洪澇災害。總體來看，今年防汛形勢嚴峻，要做好防大洪水的準備。葉建春還表示，目前防洪工程能夠防禦1949年以來的最大洪水，但超標洪水有可能超出現有的防禦能力，出現「黑天鵝」事件。預計長江中下游、珠江流域西江、海河部分水系、松花江、遼河等地可能發生較大洪水；黃河上中游、太湖、淮河等地今夏可能發生區域性暴雨洪水。有消息人士解讀，葉建春此言，似乎暗示中國今年有可能發生49年以來最大的洪水災害，而且是全國性的。
葉建春話音未落，長江上游發生了強降雨，不是他前兩天所預料的長江中下游。6月14日，重慶各區縣相繼出現大雨、暴雨天氣。其中石柱、酉陽縣等地區出現特大暴雨，中小河流出現超警戒水位洪水，河堤垮塌、損毀，縣城鄉鎮以及大面積農田被淹，水漫街道，汽車如紙船般漂浮水中，居民損失慘重。
學者專家們一致認為，在全球變暖的大背景下，近50年來中國強降水事件呈現明顯增加趨勢，降水時間越來越短，且越來越強。大城市百年一遇的短時強降雨重現時間顯著縮短，城市內澇風險增大。未來強降水事件將增多、增強，洪澇災害將進一步加劇，形勢將更為嚴峻。
了解一下歷史總是有益的。據過去兩千多年的記載，中國共發生1600多次大水災，1300多次大旱災，可謂年年有災。而且，災害的頻率有加快趨勢，每年所遭受的水旱災害，隋朝0.6次，唐朝1.6次，兩宋1.8次，元朝3.2次，明朝3.7次，清朝3.8次。這顯然與開發強度密切相關。在隋朝到清朝的1300年間，水旱災害增加了3.2次，其增長速度大約是每400年增長1次。另據資料證實，自1949年至上世紀末的50年間，平均每年發生水旱災13.5次。歷史上每400年增長1次，現在的增速是歷史上的幾十倍。這種幾十倍的加速，是應該認真想一想了。
水旱災害頻率急劇上升，自然與溫室效應造成全球升溫有關，也與開發強度、破壞性建設相關。特別是近三十年來，「發展是硬道理」，一切向錢看，GDP崇拜，再加之產權不清，揮霍資源能源，放縱污染，中國生態環境惡化已達頂點，水旱災害只有愈演愈烈。或赤地千里，或洪水滔天，或南澇北旱，或先澇後旱，總之是無災不成年，中華民族的生存已遭受到巨大威脅。
這種狀況不改變，中國百姓沒有平安。
我們唯有祈求這次水災不要太大，不要像1998年那回，降雨綿延兩月，長江8次洪峰此起彼伏，險情迭起，全國震撼。同時松花江嫩江也暴發歷史上最大洪水。那一年真可謂洪水滔天，防不勝防，至少有170處大小堤防相繼潰決或被迫爆破分洪，中國南北最富庶之地頓成一片汪洋，成千上萬的百姓頓成浮屍。(2020年6月17日)
Data Selves: More-than-Human Perspectives (Deborah Lupton, Polity, 2019)
As people use self-tracking devices and other digital technologies, they generate increasing quantities of personal information online. These data have many benefits, but they can also be accessed and exploited by third parties.
Using rich examples from popular culture and empirical research, Deborah Lupton develops a fresh and intriguing perspective on how people make sense of and use their personal data, and what they know about others who use this information. Drawing on feminist new materialism theory and the anthropology of material culture, she acknowledges the importance of paying attention to embodied experiences, as well as discourses and ideas, in identifying the ways in which people make and enact data, and data make and enact people. Arguing that personal data are more-than-human phenomena, invested with diverse forms of vitalities, Lupton reveals significant implications for data futures, politics and ethics.
Lupton's novel approach to understanding personal data will be of interest to students and scholars in media and cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, surveillance studies, information studies, cultural geography and science and technology studies. (amazon)

The Quantified Self (Deborah Lupton, Polity, 2016)
With the advent of digital devices and software, self-tracking practices have gained new adherents and have spread into a wide array of social domains. The Quantified Self movement has emerged to promote 'self-knowledge through numbers'.
In this groundbreaking book Deborah Lupton critically analyses the social, cultural and political dimensions of contemporary self-tracking and identifies the concepts of selfhood and human embodiment and the value of the data that underpin them.
The book incorporates discussion of the consolations and frustrations of self-tracking, as well as about the proliferating ways in which people's personal data are now used beyond their private rationales. Lupton outlines how the information that is generated through self-tracking is taken up and repurposed for commercial, governmental, managerial and research purposes. In the relationship between personal data practices and big data politics, the implications of self-tracking are becoming ever more crucial. (amazon)

大數據顯示中國經濟復甦無望

從全國客運量數據看中國經濟是否復甦
在客運量數據背後，體現是民工的大規模復工是否實現，以及經濟往來活動是否復甦。差旅活動、採購活動和貿易談判的旺盛程度，必定會在客運量數據里體現出來。此外，客運量數據的社會關注程度很低，並且普遍採取了數據直報系統，中間被篡改的幾率很低，所以相對可信。
以2019年為基準，當年度的月均客運量為14.67億人，其中鐵路的月均客運量為3.05億人，航空的月均客運量0.55億人，公路10.84億人，水路0.23億人。
再來看2020年1-4月的客運量，同比萎縮幅度58.8%，毫無復甦跡象！當月客運量只有5.73億人，只比2019年的平均月度客運量14.67億人的零頭稍微多了一點。這意味著在整個4月份，老百姓依然整體上窩在家裡沒有出門。
1-5月份的客運量與去年同期相比，萎縮幅度依然高達56.9%。
2020年5月份的客運量為7.37億人，同比2019年5月的14.55億人，萎縮49.3%；其中鐵路客運量1.57億人，同比2019年5月的3.08億人，萎縮49.1%；航空客運量萎縮52.6%（0.26億人/0.55億人-1）；公路客運量萎縮49.2%（5.42億人/10.67億人-1）；水路客運量萎縮52.0%（0.13億人/0.26億人-1）。
文章強調，沒有客流量，就沒有復甦，這就是常識、定理、不容質疑的經濟規律！
現在首都北京爆發第二波危機，讓本已復甦無望的經濟，雪上加霜。
一些人更指出，近幾天北京搭乘鐵路人數急劇下降，凸顯危機對經濟活動的快速衝擊。
Concepts of the Self, 4th Edition (Key Concepts) (Anthony Elliott, Polity, 2020-7-20)
This new, updated edition provides a lively, lucid and compelling introduction to contemporary controversies over the self and self-identity in the social sciences and humanities. In an accessible and concise format, the book ranges from classical intellectual traditions of symbolic interactionism, psychoanalysis and Foucauldian theory, through feminism and postfeminism, to postmodernism and the mobilities paradigm.
With characteristic verve and clarity, Anthony Elliott explores the relationship between power, identity and personhood, connecting varied theoretical debates directly to matters of contemporary relevance and urgency, such as identity politics, the sociology of personal relationships and intimacy, and the politics of sexuality. This edition also includes a new chapter on the digital revolution, which situates the self and work/life transformations within the context of AI, Industry 4.0, advanced robotics and accelerating automation.
Offering thoughtful entry points to a rich and complex literature, along with robust critical responses to each theory, Concepts of the Self will continue to be an invaluable text for students of social and political theory, sociology, social psychology, cultural studies, and gender studies.

The Psychoanalysis of the Absurd: Existentialism and Phenomenology in Contemporary Psychoanalysis (Mark Leffert, Routledge, 2020-7-1)
The Psychoanalysis of the Absurd offers an interdisciplinary study of Existentialism and Phenomenology and their importance to the clinical work of Contemporary Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. The concept of Absurdity, developed by Camus, has never been applied to the therapeutic situation or directly contrasted with its antithesis; the search for personal meaning.
The book begins with narrative accounts of the historical development of Psychoanalysis, Existentialism and Phenomenology in 20th century Europe. The focus here is on fin de siècle Vienna and Paris between the Wars as the principal incubators of the two disciplines. Accompanied by composite case illustrations, Leffert then explores his own development of the Psychoanalysis of the Absurd, drawing on the work of Camus, Heidegger and Sartre. Absurdity is first discussed in relation to the Bio-Psycho-Social Self and Dasein is posited as a bridge concept, with personal meaning as the antithesis to Absurdity, before being discussed in relation to the world and how it impinges on self. A final chapter attempts to tie together particular issues raised by the book: Subjective well-being, Meaning, thrownness, Absurdity, Death and Death Anxiety and how we have become technologically enhanced human beings.
Existential psychotherapy and psychoanalysis have, until now, largely gone their own way: the goal of this book is to fold them back into Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Establishing that the concept of Absurdity is of singular clinical importance to both diagnosis and therapeutic action, this book will be of great interest to clinicians, philosophers, and interdisciplinary scientists.

The Analyst’s Desire: The Ethical Foundation of Clinical Practice (Psychoanalytic Horizons) (Mitchell Wilson, Bloomsbury Academic, 2020-7-9)
Mitchell Wilson explores the fundamental role that lack and desire play in psychoanalytic interpretation by using a comparative method that engages different psychoanalytic traditions: Lacanian, Bionian, Kleinian, Contemporary Freudian. Investigating crucial questions Wilson asks: What is the nature of the psychoanalytic process? How are desire and counter-transference linked? What is the relationship between desire, analytic action, and psychoanalytic ethics? (amazon)
Madness and the Social Link: The Jean-Max Gaudillière Seminars 1985 – 2000 (Jean Max Gaudillière (Author), Françoise Davoine (Editor), Routledge, 2020-9-23)
This book provides a psychoanalytic reading of works of literature, enhancing the illuminating effect of both fields.
The first of two volumes, Madness and the Social Link: The Jean-Max Gaudilliere Seminars 1985-2000 contains seven of the "Madness and the Social Link" seminars given by psychoanalyst Jean-Max Gaudillière at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS) in Paris between 1985 and 2000, transcribed by Françoise Davoine from her notes. Each year, the seminar was dedicated to an author who explored madness in his depiction of the catastrophes of history. Surprising the reader at every turn, the seminars speak of the close intertwining of personal lives and catastrophic historical events, and of the possibility of repairing injury to the psyche, the mind, and the body in their wake.
These volumes expose the usefulness of literature as a tool for healing, for all those working in therapeutic fields, and will allow lovers of literature to discover a way of reading that gives access to more subtle perspectives and unsuspected interrelations. (amazon)

White Privilege: Psychoanalytic Perspectives (Psychoanalysis in a New Key Book Series) (Neil Altman, Routledge, 2020-9-28)
White Privilege: Psychoanalytic Perspectives looks at race and the significant role it plays in society and in clinical practice. Much of the effort going into racial consciousness-raising rests on the concept of unearned "white privilege". In this book, Neil Altman looks deeply into this notion, suggesting that there are hidden assumptions in the idea of white privilege that perpetuate the very same racially prejudicial notions that are purportedly being dismantled.
The book examines in depth the structure of racial categories, polarized between white and black, that are socially constructed, resting on fallacious ideas of physical or psychological differences among peoples. Altman also critically examines such related concepts as privilege, guilt, and power. It is suggested that political positions are also artificially polarized into categories of "liberal", "left" and "conservative", "right", in ways that contribute to stereotyping between people with different political leanings, foreclosing mutual respect, dialogue, and understanding. Finally, White Privilege: Psychoanalytic Perspectives explores the implications for the theory and practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy, discussing these ideas in detail and depth with clinical illustrations.
Drawing on Altman’s rich clinical experience and many years of engaging with racial and societal problems, this book offers a new agenda for understanding and offering analytic practice in contemporary society. It will appeal to clinicians, psychoanalytic therapists, and anyone with an interest in social problems and how they manifest in society and in therapy today. (amazon)
Making Sense Together: The Intersubjective Approach to Psychotherapy 2nd Edition (Peter Buirski, Pamela Haglund, Emily Markley, Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2020-8-15)
As in raising children, in which each unique parent and child pair emerges from the ongoing, mutually influencing relationship, so it is with therapists and patients. Peter Buirski argues that intersubjectivity is founded on two assumptions: First, our moment-by-moment experience of ourselves and the world emerges within a dynamic, fluid context of others; and, second, that we can never observe things as they exist in isolation.
It follows, then, that therapy is not a search for some objective truth, but what is most helpful is the quality of the relationship constructed in therapy, the personal engagement of patient and therapist. Practicing intersubjectively produces an understanding and appreciation of process. Time pressures or goal-directedness do not promote unfolding and illuminating.
Patients are striving for health, attempting to correct disappointing, destructive, or traumatizing experiences with their original caregivers, and long for an antidote to ward off such painful affects as shame or self-loathing. From the intersubjective perspective, resistance, or attempts to thwart the therapist's efforts, may be seen as healthy striving for self-protection. Demonstrating these points with vivid clinical examples, Buirski discusses the key aspects of the relational model and offers clear and practical guidelines for therapists. (amazon)

Sexual Boundary Trouble in Psychoanalysis: Clinical Perspectives on Muriel Dimen’s Concept of the “Primal Crime” (Relational Perspectives Book Series) (ed. Charles Levin, Routledge, 2020-10-6)
Inspired by the clinical and ethical contributions of Muriel Dimen (1942-2016), a prominent feminist anthropologist and relational psychoanalyst, Sexual Boundary Trouble in Psychoanalysis challenges the established psychoanalytic and mental health consensus about the sources and appropriate management of sexual boundary violations (SBVs).
Gathering contributions from an exciting range of analysts working at the cutting edge of the field, this book shatters normative professional guidelines by focusing on the complicity and hypocrisy of professional groups, while at the same time raising for the first time the taboo subject of the ordinary practicing clinician’s unconscious professional ambivalence and potentially "rogue" sexual subjectivity. Sexual Boundary Trouble in Psychoanalysis uncovers the roots of SBV in the institutional origins and history of psychoanalysis as a profession. Exploring Dimen’s concept of the psychoanalytic "primal crime," which is in some ways constitutive of the profession, and the inherently unstable nature of interpersonal and professional "boundaries," Sexual Boundary Trouble in Psychoanalysis breaks new ground in the continuing struggle of psychoanalysis to reconcile itself with its liminal social status and morally ambiguous practice. (amazon)
Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble In Psychoanalysis: Responses to the Work of Muriel Dimen (Relational Perspectives Book Series) (ed. Charles D. Levin, Routledge, 2020-10-30)
Inspired by the clinical and ethical contributions of Muriel Dimen, Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble goes beyond the established consensus that sexual boundary violations (SBV) constitute a serious breach of professional ethics, in order to explore the cultural and historical implications of their chronic persistence.
In "Rotten Apples and Ambivalence," her last major publication, Dimen (2016) maintained that "the phenomenon of sexual transgression between analyst and patient . . . is insufficiently addressed so long as it is only deemed psychological." In responding to and developing Dimen’s argument, the distinguished contributors to this volume bring the discussion of SBV to a new level of ethical rigor and depth, challenging the psychoanalytic profession to go beyond its codified complacency. This collection shatters normative professional guidelines by focusing on the complicity and hypocrisy of professional groups, while at the same time raising the taboo subject of the ordinary practicing clinician’s unconscious professional ambivalence and potentially ‘rogue’ sexual subjectivity. Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble uncovers the roots of SBV in the institutional origins and history of psychoanalysis as a profession. Exploring Dimen’s concept of the psychoanalytic ‘primal crime,’ which is in some ways constitutive of the profession, and the inherently unstable nature of interpersonal and professional ‘boundaries,’ Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble breaks new ground in the continuing struggle of psychoanalysis to reconcile itself with its liminal social status and its origins as a subversive, morally ambiguous practice.
It will be highly relevant to specialists in psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, critical theory, feminist studies and social thought. (amazon)

Freud and the Émigré: Austrian Émigrés, Exiles and the Legacy of Psychoanalysis in Britain, 1930s-1970s (ed. Elana Shapira, Daniela Finzi, Palgrave Macmillan, 2020-11-27)
This book reconsiders standard narratives regarding Austrian émigrés and exiles to Britain by addressing the seminal role of Sigmund Freud and his writings, and the critical part played by his contemporaries, in the construction of a method promoting humanized relations between individual and society and subjectivity and culture. This anthology presents groundbreaking examples of the manners in which well-known personalities including psychoanalysts Anna Freud and Ernst Kris, sociologist Marie Jahoda, authors Stefan Zweig and Hilde Spiel, film director Berthold Viertel, architect Ernst Freud, and artist Oskar Kokoschka, achieved a greater impact, and contributed to the broadening of British and global cultures, through constructing a psychologically effective language and activating their émigré networks. They advanced a visionary Viennese tradition through political and social engagements and through promoting humanistic perspectives in their scientific, educational and artistic works. (amazon)
The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy 6th Edition (Irvin D. Yalom, Molyn Leszcz, Basic Books, 2020-12-1)
Irvin D. Yalom and Molyn Leszcz's The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy has been the standard text in the field for decades. In this completely updated sixth edition, Dr. Yalom and his collaborator Dr. Molyn Leszcz draw on a decade of new research as well as their broad clinical wisdom and expertise. Each chapter is revised, reflecting the most recent developments in the field. There are new sections throughout, including online group therapy, modern analytic and relational approaches, psychoeducational groups, measurement-based care, culture and diversity, psychological trauma, and group therapy tailored for a range of clinical populations.
At once scholarly and lively, this is the most up-to-date, incisive, and comprehensive text available on the practice of group psychotherapy. (amazon)
Eros of The Impossible: The History Of Psychoanalysis In Russia (Alexander Etkind, Routledge, 2020-12-7)
This book reflects the complex fabric of history of Russian involvement in psychoanalysis. It focuses on the life and work of individuals and presents more general explorations of particular eras in the perception, development, and transformation of psychoanalysis in Russia (amazon)
Critique on the Couch: Why Critical Theory Needs Psychoanalysis (New Directions in Critical Theory) (Amy Allen,Columbia University Press, 2020-12-29)
Does critical theory still need psychoanalysis? In Critique on the Couch, Amy Allen offers a cogent and convincing defense of its ongoing relevance.
Countering the overly rationalist and progressivist interpretations of psychoanalysis put forward by contemporary critical theorists such as Jürgen Habermas and Axel Honneth, Allen argues that the work of Melanie Klein offers an underutilized resource. She draws on Freud, Klein, and Lacan to develop a more realistic strand of psychoanalytic thinking that centers on notions of loss, negativity, ambivalence, and mourning. Far from leading to despair, such an understanding of human subjectivity functions as a foundation of creativity, productive self-transformation, and progressive social change.
At a time when critical theorists are increasingly returning to psychoanalytic thought to diagnose the dysfunctions of our politics, this book opens up new ways of understanding the political implications of psychoanalysis while preserving the progressive, emancipatory aims of critique. (amazon)

Winnicott and Kohut on Intersubjectivity and Complex Disorders: New Perspectives for Psychoanalysis, Psychotherapy and Psychiatry (Carlos Nemirovsky, Routledge, 2020-8-3)
Given the complexity of scientific developments inside and outside the psychoanalytic field, traditional definitions of basic psychoanalytic notions are no longer sufficiently comprehensive. We need conceptualizations that encompass new clinical phenomena observed in present-day patients and that take into account contributions inside, outside, and on the boundaries of our practice.
This book discusses theoretical concepts which explain current clinical expressions that are as ineffable as they are commonplace. Our patients resort to these expressions when they feel distressed by their perception of themselves as unreal, empty, fragile, non-existent, non-desiring, doubtful about their identity, beset by feelings of futility and apathy, and emotionally numb. The book aims at contrasting the ideas of Winnicott and Kohut, which are connected with a clinical practice that sees each patient as unique and are moreover in direct contact with empirical facts, and applies them to the benefit of complex patients. These ideas facilitate the expansion of paths in both the theory and the practice of our profession.
Uniquely contrasting the works of two seminal thinkers with a Latin American perspective, Winnicott and Kohut on Intersubjectivity and Complex Disorders will be invaluable to clinicians and psychoanalysts. (amazon)
答客問 (Daseinsanalysis)
1.
心理治療的學派有六百到八百種之多 率皆衝著某個賣點延伸而來
每個學派都有旗幟 都有學會 都有專刊 都有訓練機制 都有證照 都有牆 都像堡壘 都有門戶之見
2.
我想這是造成 治療者的任督二脈打通的困難的關鍵
因為有太多可選的噱頭 以致找不到任督二脈
3.
有人說 關鍵在哪一個理論 對你說話 (speaks to you)
4.
可見 每個治療者 聽到的是不同的聲音 不同的理論
不同的相信
5.
在此 精神分析 行為主義 人本心理學 似乎是三條大川
6.
各有殊勝 各有相信 各有所偏 各有所見
7.
我想影響的因素 除了治療者本身的氣質 機緣
悟性 之外 還有就是他面對的是誰
8.
意思是說 他的病人決定了他
9.
或準確的說 他的病人的生命現象和經驗 乃至精神病理的複雜 的光譜 決定了他
10.但這裡 與治療者本身未竟的情結 也會呼應
11.意思是說 我是怎麼樣的人 決定了我會見到怎麼樣的病人
12.或準確的說 怎麼樣的病人 會冥冥中 靠近我 因為他們知道我知道
13.有點像 他們說 不是Winnicott了解孩子 是孩子了解Winnicott
14.我相信 上述三個大川 行為主義是與其他兩者不合的
15.意思是說 精神分析 和人本心理學 是同源的
16.這個 匯通的讀法 可以體現在存在治療
17.回到 精神分析 要當心 它的尊貴性 傷害了它的真實性 特別是外在世界的真實
18.我這麼說 是因為我不是精神分析師
19.所以 我與精神分析的關係 比照Stephen Frosch與精神分析的關係
是矛盾的 (ambivalent)
20.我珍惜這個矛盾
21.我希望這個矛盾
讓某種悠游的自由猶存
22.精神分析的殊勝 在它與理性的關係是矛盾的
23.我以前會說 意識越強 越發達 潛意識才會越強 越發達
24.意思是說 理性和非理性 的關係 是道高一尺 魔高一丈 魔高一丈 道高一丈半 的辯證
25.意思是說 精神分析誕生在十九世紀末 表示截至十九世紀末 工具理性已經讓人在睡夢中大叫 如果白天不好意思叫
26.佛洛依德的相信神經科學 說明了他有馴化這個非理性的心願
27.但他本身就是矛盾的 因為他聽到的敘事 隱含著人文學的種子 無法化約為神經迴路
28.意思是說 精神分析的屬性 跨在 科學的企圖 和人文世界的無法被科學化約 的兩難
29.然後百餘年來 這個世界 變化得越來越劇烈
30.人的現象和經驗 也越來越劇烈
31.依此 精神分析 必須是歷史的
32.因為 歷史中的人 無法被現成的解釋
33.而且 通常 精神分析是注定遲到至少二三十年的
34.因為 他老是問童年 他以為童年決定了一切
35.而此刻的成年人 正在製造歷史
36.我希望 他不要遲到太久 甚至 不要遲到 就在歷史的現場
37.這個 不要遲到 就在現場 隱含著批判的心理治療的種子
38.依此 我目前歸宗的地方 在存在治療 和批判的心理治療
移動和流動 (Daseinsanalysis)
兩者都是動 但涵義不同
前者是移 有點像搬
後者是流 有點像河
比如說 你開車從台北到墾丁
再從墾丁開回台北 這是移動
意思是說 移動是往返的
比如說 來回機票 是來回的
不是單程的
單程的票 (one-way ticket) 貴很多 你知道
一般的旅行 是移動 往返的移動
過海關的時候 他問你 你來幹甚麼
是逸樂還是買賣 (pleasure or business?)
所以 移動 通常是有原因
有目的 有意圖的
如果 你跟海關人員說 你是來流浪的
你看 他會不會 讓你過關
所以 我通常說 我是來開會的
講了半天移動 我們來說說流動
流 必有源
源 必在遠山
雲深不知的遠山
那叫做山泉
到此 流動 仍為物理現象
但 你不要忘記 水裡會有魚
所以 很快 流動 就變成生命現象
中共 搞了九萬八千個水壩
就是要阻斷 這個生命現象
讓中國人的流動 變成移動
流動是生命的循環 所以
你可以說 也是往返
但這種往返 不是 單純從A到B 從B回到A
這種往返 要透過四大 地水火風
重新變成雲 變成雨 重新落在遠山 重新往海流動
所以 流動不是 往返 但也不是
單程
這點說明了 生命的奧秘
當宋明理學家 和和尚 告訴我們
不動 應無所動
他們 指的動 是移動 不是流動
意思是說 你 乍看 那個人
一動也不動 坐在樹下 良久
其實 他心裡 波濤洶湧
已經流過 千山萬水
當然 更高明的是 他心裡
一動不動 儘管 波濤洶湧 就在咫尺
有點像 坐在尼加拉瓜瀑布旁
看著大水 心裡沒有畏懼
Hidden Hand: Exposing How the Chinese Communist Party is Reshaping the World (Clive Hamilton, Mareike Ohlberg, Oneworld Publications, 2020-9-8)
The Chinese Communist Party is determined to reshape the world in its image. The party is not interested in democracy. It sees only a bitter ideological struggle with the West, dividing the world into those who can be won over, and enemies. Many political and business elites have already been lured to their corner; others are weighing up a devil’s bargain.
Through its enormous economic power and covert influence operations, China is now weakening global institutions, aggressively targeting individual corporations, and threatening freedom of expression from the arts to academia. At the same time, Western security services are increasingly worried about incursions into our communications infrastructure.
In a landmark study combining meticulous research with unique insights, Hidden Hand exposes the Chinese Communist Party’s global program of subversion, and the threat it poses to democracy. We have already missed too many warning signs – now it is time to wake up. (amazon)
