The Israeli-Palestinian conflict: Mony Elkaïm’s systemic vision
In this special excerpt from the Therapist Confidences series, Mony Elkaïm brings his unique insight to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Drawing on the systemic approach, he analyses this complex conflict by highlighting a central idea: in any conflict, one side does not have to be wrong for the other to be right.
This discussion offers a rare perspective on geopolitical conflicts, illustrating how the principles of family therapy and the systemic approach can apply to large-scale situations. A precious piece for anyone interested in the psychology of conflict and in the systemic approach in broader contexts.
The interview was filmed by Marc D’Hondt for the Village systémique on 19 August 2014 — with immense thanks to him for this archive piece, to be discovered below, in French.
