The European Journal of Psychoanalysis is dedicated to advancing a global encounter with contemporary themes animating European psychoanalytic discourse. We embrace philosophical, anthropological, literary and historical material. We take the perspective that psychoanalysis has practical, ethical, and theoretical implications that extend far beyond clinical practice into the domains of politics and social policy, philosophy, cultural studies and the social sciences. Our journal provides an international forum for the exploration of the frontiers of psychoanalytic inquiry, giving voice to diverse perspectives, research, and clinical practice which link and transform its many partial understandings.
