Claudio Mele is among the contributors to the Italian journal L’Ombra, volume 27 (2026), titled Anima e guerra — “Soul and War” — and published by Moretti & Vitali. His article, La crisi della società contemporanea e il ruolo dell’analista, examines how social, political and economic change affects psychic life and challenges the analyst’s role.
Drawing on analytical psychology, philosophy and social criticism, the article connects individual suffering with fear, polarisation, pressure to perform and a loss of meaning. It invites readers to broaden the scope of clinical listening and consider the relationship between personal transformation and collective responsibility.
