    Area of Science:

    • Psychoanalysis
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Theoretical evolution within Contemporary Freudian and Klein groups.
    • Persistent fundamental differences in psychoanalytic theory.

    Observation:

    • The paper examines the concept of 'the unconscious', focusing on the boundary between consciousness and the preconscious.
    • A distinction is made between the present unconscious and the past unconscious.

    Findings:

    • Present unconscious phantasies are immediate ('here-and-now'), while past unconscious phantasies are often reconstructions.
    • Transference phantasies are identified as belonging to the present unconscious.

    Implications:

    • Emphasizes focusing on present unconscious phantasies and conflicts before past reconstruction in analytic work.
    • Highlights the role of dialogue with introjects and the stabilizing function of present unconscious phantasy.
    • Stresses the necessity of interpreting conflict and resistance within the present unconscious framework.
