ICLO- NLS

The Irish Circle of the Lacanian Orientation (ICLO-NLS) was founded in June 2009 as an associated group of the New Lacanian School (NLS), which is one of eight Schools that constitute the World Association of Psychoanalysis (WAP). In 2012 it became an affiliated group of the NLS.

As part of this international community ICLO-NLS is concerned with the formation of analysts within the orientation of Jacques Lacan and is devoted to research within the field of psychoanalysis. This research aims first and foremost at the various aspects of the psychoanalytic clinic, while also being concerned with the potential application of Lacanian concepts and theory to other fields such as the arts, politics, history, the social context and philosophy.
