Italian Journal of Relational Psychoanalysis
Maria Luisa Tricoli
Rome, Italy
Ricerca Psicoanalitica, the Italian journal of relational psychoanalysis, is published in Italy by Franco Angeli:http://www.francoangeli.it/riviste/sommario.asp?IDRivista=161&lingua=it.
During its twenty years, it has fostered an invaluable body of work of cultural exchange and the updating and original elaboration of psychoanalytic issues. The journal has always been in touch with the most innovative national and international debates in the field.
Ricerca Psicoanalitica was established in1990 on an initiative of the “Società Italiana di Psicoanalisi della Relazione” (SIPRe) and it is, first of all, a scientifically dedicated journal, faithful to its initial commitment. As the editorial of the very first volume asserts, “Ricerca Psicoanalitica is characterized by two irrevocable choices: clinical usefulness that is strictly connected to an adequate theorization and reflection on the method.”
Still today, our journal aims to be a useful tool, both clinically and theoretically and is oriented particularly devoted to epistemology. “Relation,” as it is written in the same editorial, “first of all means ‘mutual conditioning’ between organism and object, which is the actual context where psychological structures and subjectivities, as well as identities, are formed.” Such a statement sounds like a fulfilled prophecy, because now, twenty years later, it marks an extraordinary turning point in psychoanalysis. I am referring to the impact infant research and the theory of complex systems are having on the study of the mind and on psychoanalysis.
The importance of the non-dynamic unconscious, both in health and in illness, along with the new conception of subjectivity as an eco-self-organized system are being increasingly acknowledged as essential factors in the intense and continuous interaction between subject and world. These front-ranking themes are the Ariadne’s thread which connects our different areas of examination and its different areas of specialization: adult, couple, group, family-psychoanalysis or rather, as we prefer to say, psychoanalysis with the adult, with the couple, with the group, and so on.
Until a few years ago, I was the Associate Editor of Ricerca Psicoanalitica. The present Editor, Alberto Lorenzini, PhD, asked me to introduce the journal to the international community of the IARPP as the covered subjects are very close to the interests of IARPP members and he believes any kind of cultural exchange would be very fruitful.
The address of the journal and the Editor are:
