Beyond the Minimal Self in advance

This paper addresses the view that schizophrenia involves disturbance of the minimal self, and that this distinguishes it from other psychiatric conditions. I challenge the distinction between a minimal and an interpersonally constituted sense of self, through a consideration of the relationship between psychosis and interpersonally induced trauma. First of all, I suggest that even minimal self-experience must include a pre-reflective sense of what kind of intentional state one is in. Then I address the extent to which human experience and thought are interpersonally regulated. I propose that traumatic events, in childhood and/or in adulthood, can erode a primitive form of “trust” in other people that the integrity of intentionality depends upon, thus disrupting the phenomenological boundaries between intentional state types. I conclude that a distinction between minimal and interpersonal self is untenable, and that schizophrenia should be thought of in relational terms rather than simply as a disorder of the individual.

Cutting And Stacking

AbstractAndrés del Junco has proposed a definition of topological minimal self-joinings intended to parallel Dan Rudolph's measure-theoretic concept. By means of a rank-two ‘cutting and stacking’, this article constructs the first example of a system (a subshift) satisfying his proposed definition of 2-fold topological minimal self-joinings.The second part of the article shows that 2-fold topological minimal self-joinings does not imply 3-fold and that no map has 4-fold topological minimal self-joinings. This latter result follows from a generalization of a theorem of Schwartzman.
