This book widens the scope of clinical and theoretical
contributions on Couple and Family Psychoanalysis by collecting
case presentations and discussions by analysts from Europe, North
America, Latin America, China and Australia. The rich
cross-fertilization across countries and analytic orientations
stimulates cross-cultural thinking and deepens clinical
exploration. In English language psychoanalysis, focus on object
relations theory emphasizes internalization of early family figures
in construction of the psyche, and their projective influence on
others through continuing family interaction. Theories of the link
and of the field explored in South America and Europe, shift focus
from the internal life of the individual onto the influence of the
other, and the way superordinate unconscious patterns introjected
from previous generations are recreated by interacting members of
families and couples, and in turn contribute to the continuing
psychic evolution of individuals. Work in other cultures, such as
China, brings us face to face with deep structures of thought and
family organization that challenge Western psychoanalytic
assumptions, even as those families are in rapid change themselves.
