TY - JOUR A1 - Sorensonand, Randall Lehmann T1 - Reply to Commentary JF - Psychoanalytic Dialogues Vol. 10 (2000), pp. 847-874. N2 - Psychoanalysts have likened psychoanalytic institutes to religious denominations and have viewed any possible similarities as stubborn but temporary liabilities that should eventually be overcome. Theoretical and empirical studies in the sociology of religious denominations suggest otherwise and offer a different way to think about institute structures. If a sociology for other kinds of groups applies to psychoanalytic ones, there are important implications for how we think to structure psychoanalytic education. Y1 - 2000 ER -
