In 1953, Donald Winnicott introduced the term "transitional object" to describe those blankets, soft toys, and bits of cloth to which young children frequently develop intense, persistent attachments. Winnicott theorized that such T.O. attachments represent an essential phase of ego development leading to the establishment of a sense of self. 3, record 1, English, - transitional%20object

Mouchoir, vieille couverture, couche, bout de dentelle [...] chaque enfant a son «doudou» appelé «objet transitionnel» par les psychanalystes. C'est le médecin anglais Donald Winnicott qui a introduit ce terme en 1953 et qui en donne l'explication. Entre 4 et 12 mois, le bébé s'attache à un objet particulier qu'il suce, serre contre lui et qui l'aide à s'endormir. Une relation se développe ainsi entre le bébé et l'objet qui devient très important : c'est la première chose au monde que possède le nourrisson. [...] pour le bébé, l'objet représente la transition d'un état de fusion avec la mère à un état de relation avec la mère en tant que personne extérieure et séparée. [...] Plus tard, l'enfant traîne partout avec lui son ours ou sa couverture. 4, record 1, French, - objet%20transitionnel

Thus, it would appear that the CRDD [Convention Refugee Determination Division] presumed re-availment on the part of the applicant when he returned to Sri Lanka in 1992. It would also appear that the CRDD took for granted that the applicant had a genuine objective basis to a fear of persecution if he returned to the Jaffna area. 1, record 2, English, - re%2Davailment

Il semble donc que la section du statut a présumé que le demandeur pouvait se réclamer à nouveau de la protection du Sri Lanka quand il y est retourné en 1992. Il semble également que la section du statut a pris pour acquis que le demandeur avait une authentique crainte objective d'être persécuté s'il retournait dans la région de Jaffna. 1, record 2, French, - se%20r%C3%A9clamer%20%C3%A0%20nouveau%20de%20la%20protection%20de
