Racker and Heimann on Countertransference: Similarities and Differences
Both Sigmund Freud and Melanie Klein recognized the existence of countertransference but distrusted its clinical use. This idea was the one that prevailed until the late 1940s, when Heinrich Racker in Buenos Aires and Paula Heimann in London played decisive roles in reinstating countertransference. More specifically, both Racker (in 1948) and Heimann (in 1949), independently of and without contact with each other, claimed the importance of counte…
On Paul Coombe’s article on the Northfield Experiments
Northfield for ever
In this article I look at the Northfield experiments from the point of view of field theory as it was introduced by John Rickman and Wilfred Bion in 1943. The novelty of the experiments that arose has been an inspiration to the understanding of group and social dynamics ever since
John Rickman behind the scenes: The influence of Lewin's field theory on practice, countertransference, and W.R. Bion
This article introduces Kurt Lewin's field theory of social groups to show the impact at the time (1930s and 1940s) on the conceptualisation of the clinical setting in psychoanalysis. John Rickman is now little known, but these ideas were brought by him to psychoanalysis. Through his mentoring of his one-time analysand, Wilfred Bion, they influenced psychiatry during World War II, and helped to set the direction of a number of subsequent developm…

On being objective about the subjective: Clinical aspects of intersubjectivity in contemporary psychoanalysis
This paper attempts to set out the conceptual history of countertransference and intersubjectivity. I will attempt to show the different histories that have occurred within British object relations compared with the developments in the post-ego-psychology era in North America

Natural ethics and informed consent Ética natural e consentimento livre e esclarecido
In this paper I examine one way in which psychoanalysis could contribute a natural ethics based on the inherent psychological development of a moral conscience. Psychoanalytic object-relations theories postulate the fundamental relational nature of human beings, and therefore the correlated concerns about the well-being of others. The notion of unconscious projective identification central to some theories provides an ethic of integration

Psychic Assaults and Frightened Clinicians: Countertransference in Forensic Settings
Ideology and identity: A psychoanalytic investigation of a social phenomenon
Repression and splitting: Towards a method of conceptual comparison1
An attempt is made to compare two psychoanalytic concepts which by 'belonging' to different psychoanalytic groups have come to be defined and used differently. The paper is also an inquiry into the possibility of a comparative psychoanalytic method. The two concepts are 'repression' and 'splitting of the ego' and an examination is made of the semantic similarities and differences. Some clinical material is offered that adds indicative clinical ev…
Bion and Foulkes: The Group-as-a-Whole
This article describes the concept of the group-as-a-whole as used by Foulkes and by Bion. The differences are noted and their different applications to group therapy and to larger working institutions. The relation of Foulkes's ideas to the work at the wartime military hospital in Northfield dominated by Bion's work is highlighted in a short letter from Ronald Hargreaves, discovered in the Foulkes's archives
The Kleinian Theory of Therapeutic Action
The author distinguishes three types of change seen in patients over the course of a psychoanalysis, noting that analysts are most interested in the type that occurs uniquely as a result of the analysis itself. He discusses Freud's views on the analytic relationship and contrasts these with the way the relationship is conceptualized within object relations psychoanalysis, and he compares Freudian views of transference and countertransference with…
Intolerance and The Intolerable: The Case of Racism
Suffering Insanity: Psychoanalytic Essays on Psychosis
When madness is intolerable for sufferers, how do professional carers remain sane? Psychiatric institutions have always been places of fear and awe. Madness impacts on family, friends and relatives, but also those who provide a caring environment, whether in large institutions of the past, or community care in the present. This book explores the effects of the psychotic patient's suffering on carers and the culture of psychiatric services. Suffer…
Two Early Experimenters with Groups
The two early experimenters with groups refer to Jacob Moreno and Trigant Burrow. Their influence on the work by group analysts and within groups is set in context alongside contemporary analysts such as Freud, Ferenczi and Lane, and later on, Bion, Anzieu and Foulkes. Their respective backgrounds, their experiences with and approach to groups are compared, with a view to highlighting fundamental dimensions of group therapy which continue to exis…

Projective Identification, Alienation and Society
Le concept de projection-identification (introduit par Freud et prolonge par Melanie Klein) est un outil de premier ordre pour l'etude de la societe et des institutions. Reponse a des commentaires a propos d'un article anterieur, du meme auteur. De la a lancer un pont entre Freud et Marx, il y a un pas que l'auteur s'abstient de franchir

Suffering insanity: Psychoanalytic Essays on Psychosis
Suffering Insanity makes an argument for considering care in the psychiatric services as a whole system that includes staff as well as patients; all need attention and understanding in order to deliver care in as humane a way as possible. All those working in the psychiatric services, in both large and small agencies and institutions, will appreciate that closer examination of the actual psychology and interrelations of staff, as well as patients…
