Chasseguet-Smirgel |
1928-2006 |
- "By the time of
the student rebellions of May 1968, she had become a political
conservative. In their anonymous 1969 book L'univers contestationnaire
(reworked and published in English in 1986 as Freud or Reich?
Psychoanalysis and Illusion), Chasseguet-Smirgel and her husband and
co-author Béla Grunberger argued that the utopian political ideology of
the student demonstrators, as well as of their Freudo-Marxist avatars
Herbert Marcuse and Gilles Deleuze, was fueled by primary narcissism, the desire to
return to the maternal womb. Further, that the very term
"Freudo-Marxism" was oxymoronic—one could not reconcile the reality
principle with the Communist utopia. Chasseguet-Smirgel's analysis of
the views of the Freudian dissident Wilhelm Reich, who attempted a
systematization of the libido, explains why his orgone theory collected
followers despite its apparent pseudoscientific character.; 'As in many
cases of paranoia, the coherent and systematic appearance of ideas is a
symptom which allows the subject to function in an apparently normal
way. The internal necessity that forces paranoiacs to persuade others
as to the reality of their system of belief results in their
'recruiting' converts. These disciples will tend to be seduced by the
paranoiac's ideas in so far as these deny reality and mobilize
Illusion; an illusion which will be backed by manic rationalization.
(Freud or Reich?, page 109)'" - "Thus, Chasseguet-Smirgel postulates that the ego ideal, by "impl[ying] the promise of a return to that primitive state of fusion" (The ego ideal p. 43), effectively functions as a "maturation drive" (The ego ideal p. 44). Unfortunately, Chasseguet-Smirgel argues, environmental factors often interfere with the maturation drive. If the child's frustrations are too great, for example, reality-testing breaks down, and his "narcissism . . . remains split off from its instinctual life and cathects an exaggerated ego ideal" (The ego ideal p. 32); '[These frustrations] may cause a regression towards a more archaic form of 'narcissistic reinstatement,' or even towards psychotic megalomania in which the original lack of differentiation between internal and external perceptions recurs. (The ego ideal p.28)'" |
| Charles Derber |
1944- |
"Derber's work
falls into three major categories. One is a critique of individualism
and American culture. His 1980 book The Pursuit of Attention focuses on
ego-centeredness and "conversational narcissism" in everyday life as
structured by class, gender and America’s individualistic culture. In
2000, Oxford University Press printed a 20th year commemorative edition
of the book.[3] The Wilding of America, in its fifth edition, is a
widely used text in American sociology. It offers a sharp critique of
the American Dream and the crisis of hyper-individualism." |

1927-2012 |
Green saw moral
narcissism as the attempt to elevate oneself above ordinary human needs
and attachments - an ascetic attempt at creating an impregnable sense
of moral superiority.[Salman, Akhtar, Comprehensive Dictionary of
Psychoanalysis (2009) p. 175] |

Robert
Christopher Lasch (June 1, 1932 – February 14, 1994) was an
American historian, moralist, and social critic who was a history
professor at the University of Rochester. Lasch sought to use history
as a tool to awaken American society to the pervasiveness with which
major institutions, public and private, were eroding the competence and
independence of families and communities. He strove to create a
historically informed social criticism that could teach Americans how
to deal with rampant consumerism, proletarianization, and what he
famously labeled "the culture of narcissism". |

Malignant Self
Love: Narcissism Revisited (1999);
"Views on narcissism; Vaknin has a prolific online presence, writing on
narcissism and psychopathy.[22] His views have been solicited by the
media.[4][23]
In his view, narcissists have lost
their "true self", the core of their personality, which has been
replaced by delusions of grandeur, a "false self". Therefore, he
believes, they cannot be healed, because they do not exist as real
persons, only as reflections: "The
False Self replaces the narcissist's True Self and is intended to
shield him from hurt and narcissistic injury by self-imputing
omnipotence ... The narcissist pretends that his False Self is real and
demands that others affirm this confabulation,"[24] meanwhile
keeping his real-life imperfect true
self under wraps.[25]
Vaknin extends the concept of narcissistic supply, and introduces
concepts such as primary and secondary narcissistic supply.[26] He
distinguishes between cerebral and somatic narcissists; the former
generate their narcissistic supply by applying their minds, the latter
their bodies. He considers himself a cerebral narcissist.[27] He
calls narcissistic co-dependents "inverted narcissists."[28] "[They]
provide the narcissist with an obsequious, unthreatening audience...the
perfect backdrop."[29] He believes that disproportionate numbers of
pathological narcissists are at work in the most influential reaches of
society, such as medicine, finance and politics.[7]
Vaknin developed a new treatment modality for narcissism and
depression, dubbed "Cold Therapy".[30] It is based on recasting
pathological narcissism as a form of CPTSD (Complex Post-traumatic
Stress Disorder) and arrested development which result in an addictive
personality with a dysfunctional attachment style. The therapy uses
re-traumatization and a form of reframing.[31][32][33]" |
