Abstract
Psychoanalysis with its emphasis on the internal world has struggled with the relation between the psychic and the social; this is in spite of the fact that psychoanalysis emerged in the context of war, immigration and refugee plight. Following the Freud-Klein controversies 1941–1945 in which debate around the role of the social and the political in psychic life raged, there has been the emergence of relational psychoanalysis resulting in a flourish of writings, technique and research.
