Training in psychoanalysis is a long and demanding process.
However, the quality of education available is hugely variable
across the world. The structure of psychoanalytic education,
centered on the hierarchical "training analysis" system, reflected
a concerted effort to maintain a stable and high quality
educational process. However, throughout time this system has
become a major source of institutional contradictions that affect
the training of candidates, the scientific developments within
psychoanalysis, and the nexus of psychoanalytic theory and practice
with the surrounding scientific, social and cultural world.
Psychoanalytic Education at the Crossroads examines the ways in
which group processes, the hierarchal culture in institutes, the
influence of individual personalities, the lack of research and the
faults in supervision can all stifle creativity and hinder
candidates' progress. In this compelling work, Otto Kernberg sets
out clear suggestions for how these issues can be addressed, and
how he sees the future of psychoanalytic education across all
psychoanalytic settings and schools of thought. The first part of
this volume is focused primarily on the analysis of the nature of
these problems and their effects on the personal analysis and
supervision of candidates; on theoretical and clinical seminars; on
selection, progression, and graduation; on educational principles
and requirements, developments of theory and technique and, in
particular, limitation versus expansion of the realm of interests
and applications of psychoanalysis. The second part of this volume
deals with proposals of solutions to the problems encountered, and
major suggestions for innovation in psychoanalytic education. The
author's work in this area has been hugely influential. Kernberg
has made a substantive difference in the development of
psychoanalytic institutes and education, and continues to do so.
Psychoanalytic Education at the Crossroads will be essential
reading to anyone involved in psychoanalytic education, whether as
a psychoanalyst, psychoanalytic psychotherapist, trainee, trainer,
or supervisor.
