What makes someone a psychoanalyst? In the recent controversies about psychoanalysis, no attention has been paid to the issue of how psychoanalysts are trained. Moustapha Safouan, one of France's foremost psychoanalytic thinkers, argues that only a radical reappraisal of the training process, unquestioned since the 1920s until the vigorous but finally unsuccessful challenge of Jacques Lacan, will give back to psychoanalysis its true inspirational status. Translated with an introduction by critic and feminist, Jacqueline Rose.
