Abstract

Psychoanalysis in Argentina covers a wide field, and the present author has only highlighted what he names the “psychosocial current,” which sees man indissolubly immersed in his social and historical context. Enrique Pichon Riviere was the first to suggest this line of vision and was followed by outstanding and creative authors such as Joseph Bleger, David Liberman, and Madeleine and Willy Baranger and many others. The author himself, Samuel Arbiser has rescued and developed the notion of the “internal group,” which Pichon had barely described. For the sake of brevity, the author has selected excerpts from each thinker: David Liberman contributes to the research of the “analytic dialogue” using the theory of communication, semiotics, and linguistics, and also in the psychosomatic disorders. Joseph Bleger contributed to the theory of early evolutionary development linked to symbiosis and ambiguity and also to the psychoanalytic frame. Based on Kurt Lewin's work on field theory, Madeleine and Willy Baranger posed the psychoanalytic session in terms of and dynamics of this theory.
