Abstract

In the German migration society, psychotherapy has been debated and challenged not only since recent migration movements. Concerning psychoanalysis it seems significant to question the benefit of classical analytical concepts for psychotherapy in changing migration society. At the same time these concepts have to be reviewed by particularly taking into account their societal genesis. Initially, the archetype model by Carl Gustav Jung in its universal orientation appears promising for psychotherapy in the German migration society. Nonetheless in this article the concept is reviewed from an interdisciplinary discourse and racism critical perspective, before illustrating its potential for a contemporary psychotherapy referring to »post-migration«.
