In Debating Relational Psychoanalysis, Jon Mills provides an
historical record of the debates that had taken place for nearly
two decades on his critique of the relational school, including
responses from his critics. Since he initiated his critique,
relational psychoanalysis has become an international phenomenon
with proponents worldwide. This book hopes that further dialogue
may not only lead to conciliation, but more optimistically, that
relational theory may be inspired to improve upon its theoretical
edifice, both conceptually and clinically, as well as develop
technical parameters to praxis that help guide and train new
clinicians to sharpen their own theoretical orientation and
therapeutic efficacy. Because of the public exchanges in writing
and at professional symposiums, these debates have historical
significance in the development of the psychoanalytic movement as a
whole simply due to their contentiousness and proclivity to
question cherished assumptions, both old and new. In presenting
this collection of his work, and those responses of his critics,
Mills argues that psychoanalysis may only advance through critique
and creative refinement, and this requires a deconstructive praxis
within the relational school itself. Debating Relational
Psychoanalysis will be of interest to psychoanalysts of all
orientations, psychotherapists, mental health workers,
psychoanalytic historians, philosophical psychologists, and the
broad disciplines of humanistic, phenomenological, existential, and
analytical psychology.
