Gutes Ex.; Umschl. gering berieben; etwa 10 seiten mit -Bleistiftanstreichungen. - Englisch. - This volume is a specific and lucid presentation of the important clinical concept of projective identification. This term refers to the psychological mechanisms of unconscious projective fantasies in association with the evocation of congruent feelings in others, that is, the way in wh ich one person makes use of another person to experience and contain an aspect of himself. The projector has the primarily unconscious fantasy of getting rid of an unwanted or endangered part of himself (including internal objects) and of depositing that part into another person in a powerfully controlling way. In association with this unconscious projective fantasy there is an interpersonal interaction by means of which the recipient is pressured to think, feel, and behave in a manner congruent with the ejected feeling and the self- and object-representations embodied in the projective fantasy. The recipient is pressured to engage in an identification with a specific, disowned aspect of the projector. The clinical usefulness of the concept of projective identification has suffered from imprecision of definition and has been the source of considerable confusion in the literature. Many of the stalemates and dead ends of therapy become open to study and modification through the understanding of projective identification. ...
