Aner Govrin (Hebrew: ענר גוברין; born February 28, 1966) is an associate professor at Bar-Ilan University.[1]. Govrin is a clinical psychologist, psychoanalyst, and philosopher.[2][3][4].
Biography
Govrin was born in Tel Aviv-Yafo to Hebrew literary scholar Professor Nurit Govrin and Shlomo Govrin.
His academic studies consist of a B.A degree in Psychology and Philosophy, a master's degree in Clinical Psychology and a Ph.D. from the Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas at Tel Aviv University. The subject of his doctoral dissertation is "From Positivism to Postmodernism in American Psychoanalysis." He completed his postdoctoral fellowship at the Derner Institute of Advanced Psychology at Adelphi University in New York.
Govrin is an associate professor at the Program for Hermeneutics and Cultural Studies at Bar-Ilan University. In 2005, he established the PhD track "Psychoanalysis and Hermeneutics" for therapists in the mental health professions and has been heading it ever since[5][6].
Govrin edits two series of books[7]: "Narcissus - for Psychoanalysis, Philosophy and Cultural Studies" and Routledge Introductions to Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Since 2020, he has been conducting, together with Dr. Sharon Ziv Beiman, an online series "Reading Here and Now - Conversations with innovators in psychotherapy", in which personal conversations are held every month with prominent thinkers in the field, among them: Michael Eigen, Ann Alvarez, Antonino Ferro, John Steiner, Irma Brenman Pick, Haim Omer, Alicia Lieberman, Esther Cohen and others[8]
His Research
Govrin's research, which has been supported by the ISF - Israel Science Foundation, engages in two areas: in the field of psychoanalysis - Govrin studies the development of psychoanalytic knowledge, the 'images of knowledge' of various psychoanalytic communities, and the cultural and philosophical contexts of psychoanalytic theories. Govrin argues that psychoanalysis succeeds in surviving and evolving thanks to the side-by-side, dialectical existence of two types of communities - The fascinated (those who are loyal to a single theory such as Kleinians, Bionians, Lacanians) and the disenchanted (those who seek to change psychoanalytic knowledge such as Neuropsychoanalysis, Relational approach, and infant research). Although the fascinated and the disenchanted (troubled) communities are divided and conflicted, the dialectic between them helps psychoanalysis thrive and develop. His book " The Fascinated and the Disenchanted - Conservative and Radical[9] Perspectives on psychoanalytic knowledge " is an analysis of psychoanalytic communities and the images of knowledge they maintain.
In the domain of morality, Govrin developed the theory of Attachment Approach to Moral Judgment, by which human beings identify moral situations, in line with internal universal deep structures common to all moral situations beyond their specific content. Judgment is the result of calculation done according to fixed parameters, effortlessly and rapidly and without it reaching consciousness. Govrin identified the perception of evil as a distinct moral judgment, in which the observer identifies an extreme asymmetrical relationship between the offender and the victim, cannot "get into the head" of the wrongdoer, identifies an apathetic or abusive attitude towards the dependency characteristics of the victim, and when the offender, even after the act, continues to justify himself.
In his book Ethics and Attachment - How We Make Moral Judgments, Govrin proposes that human beings recognize moral situations, judge and decide upon them, according to fixed parameters[10]
