Sommario/riassunto

In June 1964, courageous young civil rights workers risked their lives in the face of violence, intimidation, illegal arrests, and racism to register as many African American voters as possible in Mississippi, which had historically excluded most blacks from voting. With a firsthand account of the details and thoughtful descriptions of key people on the front lines, including Fannie Lou Hamer, Charles McLaurin, John Harris, Irene McGruder, and many more, author Jim Dann brings that historic period back to life. He places those 15 months in Mississippi-known as Freedom Summer-in the overall

Sommario/riassunto

The book provides - for the first time in the German-speaking world - a comprehensive scientific contribution to working through the past of sexual violence in a psychotherapy institute. The qualitative case study takes a look at decades of abuse of power and sexual violence by the director of an analytical institute for children and adolescents. It shows that the psychotherapists involved in this system do not live up to central ideas and concepts of their profession: Silence, denial,



rationalization, rejection of responsibility, and ignorance towards the victims have for a long time prevented the disclosure of the sexual boundary violations and sustainable forms of working through them. The life of the institute is characterized by a dialectical tension between the necessity of coping and the desire for undisturbed functioning. This dynamic also proves to be analogous to the problem-solving patterns of psychotherapeutic patients. Dr. phil. Peter Caspari is a research associate at the Institute for Practice Research and Project Consulting (IPP) and works as a consultant and therapist at the KIBS (Kinderschutz München e.V. ) (Childprotection Munich) counselling center in Munich. Helga Dill is managing director of the Institute for Practice Research and Project Consulting (IPP) Munich. Dr. phil. Cornelia Caspari is a psychological psychotherapist in outpatient practice and in clinical practice in Munich and Ebersberg. Gerhard Hackenschmied is a research associate at the Institute for Practice Research and Project Consulting (IPP) in Munich. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
