I don't know of any psychoanalyst who was able to integrate so-ciological thinking with clinical practice and conceptualization the way Fromm did in the early part of the century. On the surface, these two approaches seem incompatible - at least in their methodologies - yet they complemented each other, as Erich Fromm (1929a; 1944a) and Rainer Funk (2018) have demonstrated so clearly. My presentation today is an exercise in microanalysis rather than a broad theoretical discussion about psychic and social change. I want to show how Fromm's theoretical framework and clinical experience have shaped my own work. First, I explore Fromm's originality and discuss ways in which he has been personally marginalized and intellectually isolated as a pseudo-psychoanalyst. Then, I examine the overlap of psychoanalytic approaches as they related to the concept of social Third. Finally, I present fragments of a case to show how Fromm's theoretical and clinical ideas have influenced my own work.}, language = {en} } @article{CavalettoSilver, author = {Cavaletto, George and Silver, Catherine}, title = {Opening/Closing the Sociological Mind to Psychoanalysis}, series = {L.
