Synopsis

Understanding Borderline Disorder Theory
Green addresses the so-called "boundary cases" in the intersection of neurosis, psychosis, depression and perversion. The further development of psychoanalytic theory from Freud to the present day is then examined how this difficult group of patients can be encountered, whose transmission is partly completely supercooled to dismissive, but partly also overheated to the limit of psychotic transmission.
Green examines in the present book - with reference to Winnicott, Bion and Rosenfeld, and in clear demarcation to Lacan - the boundaries and transitions between somatic and psychical, inside and outside, the self and the other. He leaves Freud's neurosis model and places the "border cases" that in some analytical practice today place the majority of patients at the centre of his theory formation: "The border cases seem to take a position on a crossroads, on a kind of hub from which both neurosis and psychosis, but also perversion and depression can be better understood. . The analyst often deals with phenomena that follow a "logic of despair": self-hatred to protect the object, derealization and psychosis as attempts to save the ego from the object.
For Green, the death instinct concept is not the end of psychoanalysis, but challenge to adequately take into account the "inner war" between eros and destructivity in analytical theory and practice; only in this way could analytical ways out of masochism and negative therapeutic response be found. Eros predominates - and thus love, sexuality, attachment - the further path leads into neurosis or further psychological processing up to symbolisation and sublimation, victories destructiveness, goes the way into perversion or psychosis. Green shows how passion and "secret craziness" of the analysis can be absorbed and understood in such a way that repetitive "endless analysis" can be avoided as well as destructive abortion or sterile "pseudoanalysis". Andre Green is a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, teaching analyst in the Societe Psychanalytique de Paris and produced. the most most contemporary tiker France. Numerous book publications and magazine contributions.
Eike Wolff is a psychoanalyst in the Societe Belge de Psychanalysis and the German Psychoanalytic Association, after initial free practice in Frankfurt/M. and 8 years in Paris since 1995 in Brussels.
