Personal Biography
Having worked as a Research Assistant at Ghent University (Belgium) and a Human Resources Manager in the Corporate Sector for many years, I moved to Brunel in 1996 to take up a post as Lecturer in Psychology. I was appointed Professor of Psychology and Psychoanalysis at Brunel in 2006, and subsequently became Head of the newly established School of Social Sciences. Since January 2012 I have been Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Strategy, Development and External Relations.
Research
Research Overview
As a professionally trained psychoanalytic psychotherapist, my research has always focused on the history, theory and practice of psychoanalysis, especially within the Lacanian tradition. I am particularly interested in clinical and technical issues, yet I also do research on the epistemology of psychoanalysis and the applications of psychoanalytic ideas to socio-cultural issues, in particular conceptions of non-normative sexuality. In addition, I am interested in the history of psychiatric discourses, particularly with regard to the diagnosis and assessment of mental disorders.
Current Projects
I am currently at work on a book-length study provisionally entitled Deathbound Sexuality, which fundamentally challenges the idea that sexuality is a life-driven force in the service of the reproduction of the species.
Recently Completed Projects
I have recently completed a substantial study of the epistemological status of the object in Lacanian psychoanalysis, to be published in Continental Philosophy Review.
I have also completed a philosophical investigation of the significance of the acts of invitation and acceptance for the establishment of hospitality, with reference to Kant’s essay on Perpetual Peace and Klossowski’s trilogy on the laws of hospitality.
