The introduction of psychoanalysis to China over the last twenty
years brings a clash between Eastern and Western philosophical
backgrounds. Chinese patients, therapists, and trainees struggle
with assumptions inherent in an analytic attitude steeped in
Western ideas of individualism that are often at odds with a
Chinese Confucian ethic of respect for the family and the work
group. The situation is further complicated by the rapid evolution
of Chinese culture itself, emerging from years of trauma, new
economics, and the one-child policy of the last generation that has
introduced a new Chinese brand of individualism and new family
structure that are not equivalent to those of the West. This volume
breaks new ground in exploring these issues and challenges to the
introduction of analytic therapies into China, not only from the
viewpoint of Western teachers, but also from Chinese teachers,
clinicians, anthropologists, and observers.
