Ethics of Psychoanalysis
(2000)
Edited by Joan Raphael-Leff
Publisher: University of Essex Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies
Psychoanalysis is well placed to engage with ethical issues, concerning itself with both inter-personal cross-weaving and intra-psychic splitting. The psychoanalytic debate locates the origins of morality in a matrix of intimate concern moulded by internalised demands and the unconscious heritage of sedimented family desires.
The five essays in this volume emerged from a series of collaborative open seminars arranged by the Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies at the University of Essex in the academic year 1999-2000.
This book is one of a series based on interdisciplinary roundtable discussions initiated by the Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies. The aim of the series is to foster psychoanalytic thinking and its contribution to other disciplines.
