Synopsis "Ecopsychology of Border Islands of Okinawa: From Isis to Biopolitics (in English)"
This is a book of psychoanalysis. However, the patient is not a human, but place and imagination of placing. The islands of Okinawa, placed on the border of Japan and Taiwan, consist of a complex of subtropical islands in the East China Sea with marine life abundantly found in the beautiful emerald ocean. However, Okinawa is a history of deterritorialization starting from colonization of the former Ryukyu kingdom by Japan in 1879, followed by the World War II and the US occupation until 1972. These tiny dots on the Pacific Ocean became subject to the collective fate of the world. However, placing oneself in these tiny dots and looking at the world from within provides a picture that is totally different from looking at them externally. There are numerous accounts by ethnographers and anthropologists who carried out research in this region of carnival masks and costumes, their belief in the oceanic paradise, worship of nature, ancestor and women's spirituality. Psychoanalysis of the anthropological research unfolds complexity of this field and deconstructs dualistic modern mind that separates nature from psyche. What appears is an ecological perspective of the psyche of the new era.
