Context:

The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) presents a challenge to psychoanalytic theory due to its potentially ideological and normative presuppositions.

Purpose:

To explore the compatibility of psychoanalytic theory with diagnostic classification systems.
To examine the implications of disorder-specific therapy for psychoanalysis.
To propose how psychoanalytic education can adapt to contemporary psychiatric classification.

Summary:

The current ICD-10 concept of disorder is critiqued for lacking nosological neutrality.
