Originally published in 1981, this study is the outcome of a
clinical workshop based in the Adolescent Department at the
Tavistock Clinic; its members at the time shared a tradition and
interest in applying psychoanalytic principles to the understanding
of groups and institutions and believed in the crucial relevance of
these in work with families. It is written with the general reader
in mind as well as those who work specifically in the field of
family therapy or psychoanalysis. The approach is based on two
particular developments; that of Object Relations Psychoanalytic
practice, derived especially from the work of Freud and Melanie
Klein; and the application of this to the understanding of Group
Relations following the work of W.R. Bion and others, such as A.K.
Rice and Pierre Turquet. It thus embraces the idea of the family as
a system and includes attempts to understand the processes involved
in such a system. But, unlike other comparable approaches, this one
implies working with the group dynamics of the family, especially
in terms of the way the family members perceive and engage the
therapists. The attempt is to create a space for the family to
relive and think about conflicts as they emerge in the therapeutic
setting. Analytic theory is matched by much clinical material, and
a glossary defines the key concepts.
