His obsession with secrecy, both in others and maintaining his own, lends him the air of a conspiracy theorist. Is he one? “I believe in facts about conspiracies,” he says, choosing his words slowly. “Any time people with power plan in secret, they are conducting a conspiracy. So there are conspiracies everywhere. There are also crazed conspiracy theories. It’s important not to confuse these two. Generally, when there’s enough facts about a conspiracy we simply call this news.”

What about 9/11? “I’m constantly annoyed that people are distracted by false conspiracies such as 9/11, when all around we provide evidence of real conspiracies, for war or mass financial fraud.” What about the Bilderberg conference? “That is vaguely conspiratorial, in a networking sense.

It looked like a scene from the 1982 horror movie Poltergeist when two bomoh allegedly captured nine djinns at the home of a woman yesterday.

The girl became the talk of her village when she allegedly vanished on several occasions, only to be found in odd places like inside a cement mixer and a cemetery.

Plotkin commence par examiner les conditions de réception du freudisme en Argentine. Avant l’introduction de l’analyse freudienne, les Argentins se passionnaient déjà pour les rêves, l’hypnose, les questions sexuelles et la psychothérapie. Le freudisme leur est apparu comme la réponse « scientifique » et moderne à ces intérêts. Les psychiatres l’ont adopté sans beaucoup de réticences.

Plotkin présente ensuite l’histoire du Mouvement psychanalytique argentin. La première association a été créée en 1939 par Juan Beltran, professeur à l’Académie militaire et à l’Université de Buenos Aires. Beltran était « proche de la droite catholique et des groupes militaires antidémocratiques. […] Il considérait la psychanalyse comme un outil éducatif destiné à maintenir l’ordre social » (p. 63s).
