A Practical Guide to Fostering Interpersonal Norms in a Gestalt Group
Authors: Earley Jay 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
One form of Gestalt group therapy focuses on the interpersonal interactions and relationships among group members as well as the intrapsychic issues that emerge. This is an effective and exciting way to make therapeutic use of the group setting. This practical article discusses how to foster group norms that intensify and maximize the interpersonal aspect of a Gestalt group. It covers pregroup handouts and interviews, how to define and encourage interpersonal norms, helping group members initiate interpersonal work, and how to move work in an interpersonal direction.
Pathways of Song
Authors: Gregory Susan 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
In this workshop, we experienced the excitement that occurs when singing activities are utilized as experiments in Gestalt therapy. By attending to process phenomena throughout, the workshop delineated how vocal activities used in a Gestalt therapy context differ from those undertaken in music therapy or other expressive therapies.
We engaged in a wide range of experiments. First, we worked with breathing awareness, to prepare the way for phonation. Attending to this aspect of id functioning heightened individuals' awareness of self in the moment. Then we explored the making of abstract tones and the boundary between silence and sound. Participants became aware of their particular ways of self-mobilizing to accomplish being heard. Long-held expecations grounded in personality function, including “Will I be heard?” and “Do you hear me as I hear myself?” came to the foreground. Throughout, we worked in different configurations, including dyads, small groups, and group as a whole.
Next, we sang a song, which added text to the aesthetic experiences of melody, pitch, and timbre. The text's storytelling brought a new dimension to the work as we explored our reactions to it. Soon, many technical questions about throat comfort, breath support, jaw release, and related physical experiences began to be expressed. We experimented with ways of encountering these topics and the retroflections they evinced. Along with the ensuing practical exercises, group members began to relate personal experiences of singing and of music lessons in their childhoods. Much emotion flowed, which both the small groups and the group as a whole creatively supported.
We continued in small groups, where each person talked of a song that held special importance for him or her, speaking about it, and in some cases, singing it. We then returned to our group as a whole and, standing in a circle, ended with a sung go-round in which each group member sang a portion of a song, some persons risking to sing for the first time in many years. We could feel clearly then how the group endeavor supported individual effort and how our experimenting with singing had taken us far from our beginning in this workshop.
Gestalt and Engineering: A Virtual Meeting of Two Cultures
Authors: Bar-Yoseph Benjamin A. 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
This paper dwells in the gray area of integration. It brings an attempt to analyze a process in the engineering discipline from a humanistic Gestalt point of view. The paper looks at the engineering design process as a problem-solving process in the engineering discipline and at the Gestalt cycle of experience as a problem-solving process in the humanistic discipline. A brief description of the engineering design process is given and compared to the Gestalt cycle of experience. The paper goes through the design process and shows the similarity of its basic elements to the basic elements of the cycle of experience. While doing so, it also states the differences, which are caused by the different cultures of the two disciplines. The paper concludes with a representation of the two processes on a time versus energy level scale.
Models of Training in Gestalt Therapy in Ireland
Authors: O'Leary Eleanor , O'Sullivan David 
Published: February 2018

AbstractGestalt therapy in Ireland is examined in terms of history, current state of development and future challenges. Its emergence in Ireland was evidenced by a series of workshops held during the 1970s. The 1980s saw courses established in Cork (Counselling and Health Studies Unit, UCC and the Cork Counselling Centre) and Dublin (Irish Gestalt Centre). Additional courses have been established in the last decade (Dublin Institute of Gestalt Therapy, ProConsult (Galway) and the Counselling Centre, Killarney). This growth has been reflected in the founding of the Irish Gestalt Society in 1995. An important challenge is the harmonization of Irish training standards.
Interview with Edwin Nevis
Authors: Snir Sharon 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
Although the accomplishments of individuals are often note-worthy in their far-reaching impact, it is the person behind those accomplishments who enables us to see more clearly and to appreciate with greater wisdom. It is all too easy to get lost in “doing” our lives when who we are makes the most profound difference. This interview offers a glimpse at the qualities of Edwin Nevis: the aspects of him that are warm, generous, cheeky, compulsive, humorous, and loving. He shares anecdotes from his early years, memories of people with whom he worked and lived, and dreams that have been realized and dreams yet to be grounded in reality. This is but a snippet of the life of a visionary whose gift is to ignite interest, passion, and action in others while never forgetting each step it took him to get to the present.
Relational Support in the Gay Coming-Out Process
Authors: Iaculo Giuseppe 
Published: February 2018

AbstractThe purpose of this article is to illustrate the type of specific support that the therapist may offer a person undertaking a growth process, who is confused about his feelings and sexual orientation, and may be afraid of admitting that he is gay. I will describe how the phases of the gay coming-out process coincide with the phases of the contact cycle experience. I will also illustrate how, within the relationship that the patient establishes with the therapist, the therapist can provide support that is respectful, which may lead the individual to gradually acquire a positive gay identity and reveal himself to others.
The Theory of Self in Gestalt Therapy: Re-Establishing a Relationship Between Subjectivity and Temporality
Authors: Távora Claudia Baptista 
Published: February 2018

AbstractThis article re-examines the relationship between self-other and space-time, considered central for the epistemology and theory of practice in Gestalt therapy. Rather than presuming them to be closed and unproblematic topics, this article points out contradictions and difficulties observed in the attempt to overcome traditional dichotomous thinking in psychology and psychotherapy, which has left us a heritage of individualistic and structural attitudes that we have never completely overcome. This article first proposes a restitution of classical ruptures, re-affirming that the self is neither a physical organism nor a closed figure. It then characterizes the self as a concept in Gestalt therapy's theory of subjectivity which emphasizes its incorporeal, circular, and temporal qualities. This is followed by reports of some usually forgotten aspects of temporality that are basic to theory and practice. Small fragments of the author's own practice are shared to provide a more concrete view of temporal manifestations in psychotherapy. The article is intended to be a contribution to other authors' efforts to develop unfinished issues in the theoretical basis of the Gestalt approach.

El presente trabajo tiene por objeto estudiar el desarrollo de la educación técnico profesional en Chile en el marco del segundo Centenario republicano (1910-2010), con la finalidad de poder identificar algunos hitos relevantes de su proceso de desenvolvimiento histórico, sus principales desafíos y vicisitudes frente al complejo proceso de modernización de la sociedad y los nuevos requerimientos económicos, técnicos y laborales formulados por los diversos actores sociales. La ETP en Chile ha transitado por diferentes etapas y estadios de desarrollo. Durante el período referido (1910-2010) ha atravesado desde una etapa caracterizada por demandas del gremio de profesores, (primeras décadas del siglo XX), hacia la etapa de su consolidación como modalidad educativa bajo los gobiernos Radicales (1939-1952) - orientados a fomentar la industrialización del país –, pasando, luego, por la Reforma Educacional de 1965 bajo el gobierno DC, posteriormente por la etapa del proceso de modernización de corte neoliberal bajo el régimen militar de Augusto Pinochet, hasta la reforma de los años 90, en Democracia, para enfrentar nuevos desafíos como los planteados por la sociedad del conocimiento en los umbrales del siglo XXI.* * *The present work aims to study the development of professional technical education in Chile within the framework of the Republican second Centenary (1910 - 2010), in order to identify some relevant milestones of its historical development process, its main challenges and vicissitudes facing the complex process of modernization of society and the new economic, technical and labor requirements formulated by the various social actors. PTE in Chile has traveled through different stages and phases of development. During the period referred to (1910 - 2010) it has gone from a stage characterized by demands of the teachers' union (first decades of the twentieth century), towards the stage of its consolidation as an educational modality under the Radical governments (1939 - 1952) - oriented to promote the industrialization of the country -, and then to the Educational Reform of 1965 under the DC government, later by the stage of the process of modernization of neoliberal court under the military regime of Augusto Pinochet until the reform of the 1990s, In Democracy, to face new challenges such as those posed by the knowledge society at the threshold of the 21st century.
Nationens ansigt. Sport og nationalisme
Authors: Cranfield John Andrew 
Published: February 2018

The Face of the Nation. Sport and NationalismThis article looks at some of the ways in which sport and nationalism connect and how, in an age of ever closer political and economic ties between EU member states, the world of sport provides a framework for the promotion of individual national identity. Sport and especially large-scale televised sports extravaganzas are not, as is sometimes suggested, events which cement notions of global community but rather arenas in which nationalism and national feelings are confirmed time and time again. I look here at a number of different theoretical views on the nature of nationalism and relate these to how the world of sport acts out these theories in practice. Special emphasis is placed on Benedict Anderson’s idea of Imagined communities, which has come to play such an important role in the understanding of the premises which form the basis for national identity. I also look at Michael Billig’s idea of Banal Nationalism and pursue the idea that sport seems to represent an interesting paradox of banal vs non-banal.The second part of this article analyses how the printed media in Denmark wrote about the Danish national team during the finals of the European Cup in 1992. I will examine how the press reinforced ideas of national identity and what images and symbolic references were used to this end.
Et Folks stærkeste løftestang. Sport og karakterstyrke
Authors: Nielsen Lars Koefoed 
Published: February 2018

Artiklen beskriver sportens værdi og karakteristika og diskuterer sportens betydning for karakterdannelse med bl.a. fairplay-idealet som eksempel.A country’s strongest lever. Sport and character-buildingReasons given by sports organizations for playing sport seem to reflect the sense that sport is never motivated by its value qua sport – as a potentially amusing and diverting leisure activity or a exercise of skill – and look beyond the activity to find other reasons for the time spent in play. The idea of the social function of sport as an ideal educational and character-building activity must have origins which can help to explain the nature of sporting ideals and values. To find possible explanations for the emergence of the ideal of character in sport, this ideal is analysed as it developed alongside the introduction and consolidation of sports in Denmark from 1880 to 1920. The aim is to provide a picture of the emergence and development of discourse related to the educational and characterbuilding value of sport. The results show that sport is regarded by its pioneers as an agency for socializing participants. However, the picture is complicated by the duality which emerges as the middle class try both to educate and to distance itself from the working class. The same wish for distance can be seen between skilled and unskilled workers, between male and female practitioners and partly too between farmers and smallholders.
Livet er for kort til kvindefodbold - om kvindefodbold, homfobi og (re)præsentationer af homofobi i den dansk avispresse
Authors: Brus Anne 
Published: February 2018

Et bidrag til en mangelfuld litteratur om kvinder og fodbold, fordomme og maskulinitet.Life is too short for women’s football – on women’s football, homophobia and (re)presentations of homophobia in the Danish pressInternational success has not been the hallmark of Danish women’s soccer since the early 1970s, when the national team won the unofficial World Cup in Mexico and caught the interest of Danish news media and the Danish public in general. Since then only scarce media attention has been paid to Danish women’s soccer. With a specific aim of exploring the current interest of Danish media in women’s soccer – its character and images – this article examines the (re)presentations of women’s soccer in selected Danish newspapers in the period from 1995 through 2001. The theoretical point of departure is taken in the concept of homophobia, and includes a discussion of how homophobian attitudes may shape women’s engagement in sports. Against this backdrop, five homophobian themes emerge from the analysis of Danish newspaper (re)presentations on women’s soccer, each of them pointing to a sport in which women are now being accepted but yet not respected.
Sportskammerater - et tema i forholdet mellem lokale idrætsforeninger og kommunale myndigheder
Authors: Mortensen Morten 
Published: February 2018

Idrætspolitik og idræt som socialt samlingspunkt.Sporting comrades – a theme in the relationship between local sports associations and the county authoritiesUp until the Leisure Bill of 1968, relations between local sporting associations and local authorities were characterised by a gradual onward progress, in which local sports associations with greater or lesser degrees of success won the local power struggle to give children and young people a good leisure activity. Those rights and agreements with the county on economic support which most sports associations today almost take for granted were achieved because the self-knowledge possessed by sports associations was shared in a whole series of areas by surrounding society and to a large degree also by politicians. Central to this self-knowledge was the perception that comradeship in sports associations symbolised a social fellowship which was held in place by emotional values. The question is whether comradeship is not in many ways at the heart of the way in which sports associations have locally extended and underpinned their influence in relation to local politicians and business. To take part in the comradely conventions of sport was then tantamount to being member of a lodge with all the political and economic network that it involved.
Elli Björkstén - genusordning förnyare eller förvaltare?
Authors: Wanneberg Pia Lundquist 
Published: February 2018

En skildring af gymnastikpædagogen Elli Björksténs perspektiver på og udvikling af idrætten omkring første halvdel af 1900-tallet med særligt fokus på Björksténs gymnastikforms indflydelse på kvinden som køn.Pia Lundquist Wanneberg: Elli Björkstén – an innovator or administer of the gender order?From a gender point of view a reformation of the Swedish Ling gymnastics took place during the beginning of the 20th Century: a division into a female and a male form of physical education. Originator was the Finnish gymnastic teacher Elli Björkstén and her reforming had consequences for the education in Swedish schools. Up until puberty, girls and boys could do gymnastics and sport together as well as do the same things, but after that the boys were guided towards exercises that worked on strength, determination and performance, and girls towards aesthetic exercises, which developed agility, flexibility and grace. From a fairly asexual environment, the dividing lines became more rigid at the time of puberty. What warranted the distinction was the first sight of the pubescent girl, who was physically weak: a weakness that was due to reproduction. Consequently, the physical education of girls and boys revealed important differences. Whilst the girls’ gymnastic lessons gave a lot of scope to rhythmic movements, such as singing- and dancing games, as well as exercises that demanded, for instance, agility, the boys’ lessons comprised, to the same extent, of endurance- and strength training exercises in the form of, for instance, apparatus gymnastics and running. The distinction within sport, however, lessened with the growing physiologisation of the subject. In his studies, Per- Olof Åstrand had shown that pubescent girls were not weaker that pubescent girls were not weaker than the boys. In the gymnastics section, however, this distinction remained until 1980. Girls and boys were still to be raised into two different types: one, supple and graceful and the other, strong with stamina. From a gender point of view, the individualisation of the school system did not entail any change. In school, the pupils were still regarded as two genders, not as people or individuals.
Landskampen Sverige-Danmark - framväxten av en svensk fotbollsnationalism
Authors: Andersson Torbjörn 
Published: February 2018

Artiklen belyser med udgangspunkt i landskamptraditionen, i form af fodboldslandskamp Sverige-Danmark, hvordan en svensk fodboldsnationalisme gradvis voksede frem fra 1910 -tallet.

Torbjörn Andersson: The example of Sweden
Around the year 1900 nationalism in Sweden was a conservative phenomenon and sports leaders were associated with this kind of grandiose patriotism. Later a more popular, collective feeling of national identity was sought – not least by the Social Democrats – in which the Swedish football national team would act as the rallying point. In this context, the internationals against Denmark – the first game goes back to 1913 – served the purpose, in that they, without descending to chauvinism, effectively contrasted the respective skills of both countries. It was at the games against Denmark that national symbols like the national anthem and the national flag became popular among ordinary people. A tradition of organised cheering was also established and this clearly showed how nationalism turned into a more popular phenomenon. This whole ritual around the international games was definitively established during the interwar period. By then the regional conflicts between Stockholm, Gothenburg and the province of Scania on how to form the strongest possible national side had more or less disappeared.
Kropskultur i Grønland - set med danske øjne
Authors: Vinther Solveig Skovmose 
Published: February 2018

Artiklen belyser det koloniale og postkoloniale forhold mellem Grønland og Danmark og tegner et billede af danskerne syn på grønlandsk kropskultur gennem tiden.

Solveig S. Vinther: Body Culture in Greenland – seen from Denmark
Since the formal end of colonialism, great emphasis has been put on research in postcolonialism and postcolonial issues. The basic idea in this kind of research is that colonisation is not only a matter of war, violence, and power relations; we also need to consider changes at a more unspoken and unheeded level. In Denmark however, the term Empire has never really been part of the Danish self-image, and only a small amount of postcolonial research have been conducted that focus specifically on the relationship between Denmark and its former colonies. This article will look at the ways in which the Danish colonisers have described the body culture of the Greenlanders through time. The postcolonial aspect of the project will centre on the ways in which the relations between the colonisers and the colonised can be read in the literature of the colonisers. The term Polarism will be introduced to develop an understanding of the Danish discourses describing the body culture of Greenland. The article will hopefully begin to answer some of the unanswered – and unasked – questions concerning the relationship between Denmark and Greenland through an analysis of games, sports and body culture and their representation in the colonial and postcolonial descriptions of Greenland.
Skal idrætten fortsat have sit eget retssystem? En analyse af det idrætsretlige system set i lyset af Anja Andersen-sagen
Authors: Rasmussen Jens Bertel 
Published: February 2018

Artiklen handler om, i hvilket omfang idrætten kan betragtes som et isoleret område med eget retssystem, eller hvorvidt de civile domstoles behandling skal findes anvendelse for sportsudøvere, ledere og trænere i de sager, der kan opstå i forbindelse med idrætsudøvelse. Artiklen gennemgår behandlingen af den såkaldte Anja Andersen sag.

Jens Bertel Rasmussen: Should athletic associations continue to have their own system of justice? An analysis of the system of justice within sports associations focusing on the Anja Andersen-case
Sports associations have their own system of justice, containing rules and laws on punishment and bans. This article focuses on the issue of whether sports associations can be looked upon as being an isolated area, containing values and standards of its own or if the laws and values of society apply to athletes, leaders and coaches as well. Are certain fundamental legal rights being violated, when sports associations sentence either individuals, teams or associations to fines or bans? Through an analysis of the system of justice in the sports associations and an analysis of the legal rights and rules in question, the article concludes that rules and laws should apply to the sports associations in the same degree as they apply in society in general. Having said that, there are certain matters surrounding sports associations that entail different rules and systems to apply. The author of the article therefore concludes, that a separate system of justice in sports associations in some matters is crucial and acceptable as long as fundamental values and legal rights are respected. This can be accomplished by converting all sports justice systems to one system, which will ensure an equal case handling for all sorts of athletes as well as leaders, coaches and associations.
