Some sixty years after the "Controversial Discussions" in the early
40s, this passionate book resurrects their spirit on a global
scale. Under the aurthor's generous, tactful yet strong leadership,
a small discussion group of noteworthy analysts of the
International Psychoanalytical Association, coming from all the
theoretical and geographical regions in today's psychoanalytic
Babel, met several times over three years in order to deal, by way
of the detailed discussion of their clinical experiences, with what
to many of those involved was and still is a polemical concept:
that of the borderline patient. Such a concept, widely accepted in
the United States, remains controversial in many parts of the
psychoanalytic universe, mainly in what concerns the multifaceted
relationship between psychoanalytic and psychiatric categories. To
be remarked upon is the sincerity put to play by the participants
in expressing their doubts, their agreements and their
disagreements in the heady process of developing a grasp on the
others' viewpoint.
