Abstract
What is offered in group-analytic training? The tentative answer is twofold. It is argued that by changing verbal communication in the group into a free-floating group discussion' Foulkes developed a consistent method for getting access to unconscious processes in groups, a method that is different from classical psychoanalysis. Implicitly, this approach is conceived of as ethical in nature, recognizing individual associations as interpretations valuable to the whole of the group. Referring to Lacan, this mode of access to unconscious processes is characterized as the step from `demand' to `desire'. The possible consequences of these assumptions in group-anayltic training institutions are discussed and a suggestion is made to include a large group experience of the training institution as a whole as an integral part of the training process.
