Psychoanalysis appears early in Russia, even before that in many western countries. The social Marxist scientists understood the development of a scientific theory of the psyche as a priority and the Freudian hypotheses were received by interest for this task before repression dissolved the psychoanalytic movement at the 1920s. In our case we are going to centre on the contributions of Valentin N. Voloshinov, representative of the fruitful circle bajtiniano in the post-revolutionary Leningrad, which work carries a real anticipating character in the comprehension of the dialectics between the person and the social being from his rediscovery for the social sciences in West. Likewise we will comment how Voloshinov's influence flows especially in some recent attempts for re-conceptualizing the unconscious from a psycho-social perspective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
