- Abstract
The starting point of the author's considerations is he abstract of Möhring's and Neraal's work (2022) on the theoretical development of the psychoanalytic family therapy in Germany. They focus on how family conflicts (Massing, Reich and Sperling) are passed on from generation to generation, generating certain role expectations of parents on children (Richter), close relationships within the family, delegation and interpersonal abilities which Thea Bauriedel describes in her analysis of relationships. The attachment theory and the mentalization theory are presented against the background of today's empirical findings. This is not supposed to be a renunciation of the theory of conflict of psychological disorder. On the other hand, some people need stable and reliable care and attention before they can interact with other people. Mentalization deficits, however, are the consequences of attachment problems which result from smaller or larger traumata. Möhring and Neraal stress the further validity of the theory of conflict. Nevertheless, the main emphasis of the article is put on the modern and increasing, helpful and necessary but partly restrictive accentuation of the structural share of psychoanalysis. This work tries to show the differences and similarities of the above mentioned theories. The analysis of relationships is seen as an independent relationship- and treatment theory. Also, the basics of the resulting views and ways of treatment are outlined and compared as for their compatibility. That results in a complex mix of the theory of conflict, trauma theory, conflict management and structural weakness, confronting and supporting treatment, a treatment which follows the natural lift of the unconscious and is also structured and finally different problems in transference and countertransference.
