Review Essay: Attachment and Eros: Opposed or Synergistic?
- Anthony Bass's paper is viewed from the perspective of the object relations orientation of a member of the British Group of Independent Psychoanalysts. The perceived transference – countertransference >equality< in the interpersonal model is described in the light of the asymmetry of the analytic relationship implied in the object relations relation model used by many Independents. The structuring role of object relationships in analysis is touched on, and the relationship between exploration of the unconscious and internal construction processes is raised. In addition, Bion's model of >O,< which seems to me to reflect many of the inherent qualities of Singer's and Bass's model, is not referred to in Bass's paper. To what extent has Bion's thinking influenced the interpersonal model?
