The Purpose of Examining a Client's Family Constellation Is:
BELONGING AND IDENTIFICATION
By Sadhana Kay Needham (December 2010)
Systemic family constellations provide an integral foundation for evoking and supporting emergence of consciousness; out of human concepts of belonging. Definitive concepts of belonging have consequences. Can processes of identification provide a foundation for universal emergence of consciousness that moves beyond belonging? Or are they a hindrance to the holism of being a human engaged in soul movement? "Theodore Due west. Adorno (September 11, 1903 – August six, 1969) was a German-born international sociologist, philosopher, and musicologist. Adorno'south work in the years before his death was shaped by the idea of "negative dialectics", set out especially in his volume of that championship. A fundamental notion in the piece of work of the Frankfurt School since
Dialectic of Enlightenment
had been the thought of thought condign an instrument of domination that subsumes all objects nether the control of the (dominant) subject field, especially through the notion of identity, i.east. of identifying as real in nature and society only that which harmonized or fit with dominant concepts, and regarding as unreal or non-existent everything that did not. Adorno's "negative dialectics" was an attempt to articulate a non-dominating thought that would recognize its limitations and accept the non-identity and reality of that which could non be subsumed under the subject'southward concepts. Indeed, Adorno sought to footing the critical bite of his sociological piece of work in his critique of identity, which he took to be reification in thought of the commodity form or substitution relation which e'er presumes a false identity between different things.
The potential to criticize arises from the gap between the concept and the object, which can never go into the onetime without remainder.
This gap, this non-identity in identity, was the secret to a critique of both material life and conceptual reflection.
" ( WIKAPEDIA- ADORNO )
As an exploration of how identification impacts upon concepts of belonging within systemic family unit constellations (SFC); I would like to examine some of Adono'due south ideas mentioned in a higher place and relate them to SFC, for further understanding. Human being fabricated western psychological, political, civic and social processes all facilitate
"….thought becoming an instrument of domination that subsumes all objects under the control of the (ascendant) subject, especially through the notion of identity:"
Left brain, logical and linear pathways comprise, allocate and include all subjects that can be identified, categorized and contained within parameters of intellect and thought alone. The very human action of objectivity attempting to subsume subjectivity via identity is out of social club and yet this is what man fabricated paradigms of belonging attempt to practise. The real question is what came first: the subject or the identity, or the object? Now asking what came first, the object or the subject is like asking, what came offset the one
chicken or the egg? It becomes indeterminable every bit to who came starting time. The question is a dead end street. The path leads nowhere. The direction is purely philosophical, information technology cannot facilitate growth. Those in family constellation that advocate loyalties to pure presence or essence are likewise caught in an atmosphere that floats above growth process. In conceptual consideration such every bit this, hierarchy, order and balance are unobservable. Subjects and objects serve agreement for homo transformation when the mechanics of listen are able to organize life force (presence) within parameters of existential hierarchy, order and residual. This orientates sensation towards growth, transcendence and consciousness. Conceptual misuse of identity every bit part of intellect, mind, conscience and belonging, acts out of and executes a lesser authorisation to dominate, a higher authority. What came second, or later (conceptualizing the known) insists to conquer, reorganize, systemize and revolutionize what came first or earlier (the unidentifiable and the unknown.) 2nd order social structures such as these are engineered to classify, "
as real in nature and order only that which harmonized or fit with dominant concepts, and regarding as unreal or not-existent everything that did not." Essentially AND EXISTENTIALLY "THE EVOLUTIONARILY LATER ALWAYS SUBSUMES AND INCLUDES THE EVOLUTIONARILY Earlier." (Frederick Turner.) "Adorno'southward "negative dialectics" was an attempt to articulate a non-dominating thought that would recognize its limitations and accept the non-identity and reality of that which could non be subsumed under the discipline'south concepts."
An articulate not-dominating idea that recognizes its limitations, and accepts non- identity and reality of that which could not be subsumed, under the bailiwick "belonging's" concepts, is "beyond belonging." That not-dominating thought of "beyond belonging" that could not be subsumed by belonging is entirely capable of subsuming "belonging" itself, simply because information technology came later! It is able to do this because it includes the evolutionary earlier level of belonging. Beyond belonging is able to include, comprise and embrace all identifications of guild, balance and bureaucracy. Concepts of Human made belonging do not have this inherent capacity to subsume concepts of beyond belonging. Human being made belonging needs to swallow itself, transform itself; and then capacity emerges.
"Indeed Adorno sought to ground the disquisitional seize with teeth of his sociological work in his critique of identity, which he took to exist reification in thought of the commodity form or commutation relation which always presumes a false identity between different things. "
Can identity (concept) and belonging (object) in themself regard or treat "beyond belonging" (subject field), every bit if it had a concrete or material existence of its own? Identity and belonging in the hands of mind, ego and conscience itself; demonstrate the innate characteristic of reducing everything inside a sphere of observation, into to a thing, a possession. Even when social relations betwixt people announced to be abstract and void of whatever authentic energetic connection to life force; identifications fuelled by belonging become relations between things. The "form or exchange relation", of identifying belonging, "which e'er presumes a false identity between dissimilar 2
