Over the course of the past 15 years, there has been a vast sea
change in American psychoanalysis. It takes the form of a broad
movement away from classical psychoanalytic theorizing grounded in
Freud's drive theory toward models of mind and development grounded
in object relations concepts. In clinical practice, there has been
a corresponding movement away from the classical principles of
neutrality, abstinence and anonymity toward an interactive vision
of the analytic situation that places the analytic relationship,
with its powerful, reciprocal affective currents, in the
foreground. These developments have been evident in virtually all
schools of psychoanalysis in America, from the most traditional to
the most radical. The wellspring of these innovations is the work
of a group of psychoanalysts who have struggled to integrate
aspects of interpersonal psychoanalysis, various British object
relations theories, and psychoanalytic feminism. Although not
self-selected as a school, these theorists have generated a
distinct tradition of psychoanalytic thought and clinical practice
that has become extremely influential within psychoanalysis in the
United States. Relational Psychoanalysis: The Emergence of a
Tradition brings together for the first time the seminal papers of
the major authors within this tradition. Each paper is accompanied
by an introduction, in which the editors place it in its historical
context, and a new afterward, in which the author suggests
subsequent developments in his or her thinking. This book is an
invaluable resource for any clinical practitioner, teacher or
student of psychoanalysis interested in exploring the exciting
developments of recent years.
