Resumen

BITTENCOURT, Anna-Maria de Lemos. The ever-changing future of psychoanalysis. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2010, vol.44, n.1, pp.27-31. ISSN 0486-641X.

The author examines some transformations and revisions in the psychoanalytic theory and techniques of Freud and his followers since 1910 - which gave the psychoanalytic method an unforeseen scope. She deems decisive the changes in the last Freudian theory, as well as Ferenczi and Winnicott’s contributions to the concept of object and examines their unfoldings within contemporary clinic. She reflects upon possible changes of principles and goals of the analytic method. The history of transformations reveals the fecundity of psychoanalytical thinking, leading the author to believe that the future prospects of analytic therapy are promising, insofar a mutant vigor is maintained - which demands from analysts and their institutions a permanent analysis of possible mechanisms that can lead to sterile repetitions.

Palabras clave : "classical" psychoanalysis; management; ego integration; theoretical and technical transformations.
