  A complex mixture of forces
 
 
Title: A complex mixture of forces
Author: Shuttleworth, Alan
Appeared in: Infant observation
Paging: Volume 7 (2004) nr. 2-3 pages 43-60
Year: 2004-05-01
Contents: The paper argues that purely psychoanalytical theory, by itself, is not sufficient to understand many of the complex, mixed states carried by many of the children seen by child psychotherapists. Mixed forms of understanding are needed. Psychoanalytic thinking and 'hard' science are not the same as each other but need to be brought into active dialogue. As an instance of this, the paper looks at the relationship between Kleinian thinking and attachment theory and argues that a mixed, inner world and environment sensitive form of thinking, that draws on both Klein and Bowlby, has become characteristic of Kleinian child psychotherapy today. This established way of thinking is now being stretched in order to accommodate neuroscientific findings.
