In the paper "Revision of drive theory" (Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane, 2022, 56, 3: 363-422) Mark Solms (2021a) correctly argues that the basic motivational forces are affect systems, activated following the general homeostatic principles that govern biological processes that assure survival and reproduction. However, psychoanalytic object relation theory points to a specifically human, supraordinate integrative motivational system that condenses component affect systems into the affiliative and counteraffiliative motivations described by Freud with the concepts of libido and aggression. They are not "drives" in the psychobiological sense, but profoundly define unconscious intrapsychic conflict and are relevant in clinical psychoanalysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, I examine the relationship between Foucault and psychoanalysis through the lens of problematization. Rather than asking the interpretive question of what was Foucault’s own attitude toward psychoanalysis, I analyze what sort of problem psychoanalysis might be thought to pose for a Foucaultian conception of critique. The bulk of the paper is devoted to a discussion of the three primary dangers that psychoanalysis is typically thought to pose for such a conception; these dangers are grouped under the headings of normalization, the drives, and power. After arguing that these three dangers can be overcome - by which I mean that they do not amount to reasons for believing that psychoanalysis is conceptually incompatible with Foucaultian critique - I then turn to a discussion of how psychoanalytic concepts and categories are related to Foucault’s method of critical problematization. There I argue that psychoanalysis, far from being incompatible with Foucault’s understanding of critique, actually serves as a model for his own critical method understood as a radical approach to writing history.

FANTASY (Psychology) ,PSYCHOANALYSIS ,CLINICAL trials ,MEDICAL research - Abstract
In this paper the authors give a summary of their Contemporary Freudian approach to clinical work. The main theoretical perspectives are described followed by the clinical principles guiding clinical work with adults. A clinical example is then given to illustrate how these principles inform the analyst's listening and formulation of interpretations. Our Contemporary Freudian approach has developed over many years of clinical work and study and our immersion in the life of the British Psychoanalytic Society with its different schools of thought. It is based on the Freudian tradition: the conceptualization of the dynamic unconscious and the role of unconscious phantasy which informs our understanding of the unfolding analytic process. The Freudian developmental perspective (further elaborated by Anna Freud and others) is the essential basis on which we understand the patient's history and current mental functioning. The centrality of the body with its sexual and aggressive drives that have to be integrated into the individual's self and object representations over the course of development, remains fundamental in our clinical approach.

7. Se déprendre de soi-même. A Critique of Foucault’s Ethics.

PSYCHOANALYSIS - Abstract
Between the first and the second volume of The History of Sexuality there is a gap of eight years in which Foucault did not publish anything except interviews. Analyzing some of those interviews, the article reconstructs the reasons that lead Foucault to abandon the thematization of power’s constraints imposed on the subject and start to elaborate an ethics in which the subject can be rid of him or herself thorough a care of pleasure(s). Arguing how this change does not represent for Foucault a denying of his previous work but its evolution, the article shows that, despite Foucault’s attempt to establish a discourse other than psychoanalysis, his ethics of sexuality unwittingly returns to the “force” that psychoanalysis recognizes as animating sexuality.
