[Middle and autonomous person- remarks on the anthropological reference system in the analytical psychotherapy of Harold Schultz-Hencke].
Remarks concerning the anthropological reference system in the analytical psychotherapy of Harold-Schultz-Henke. This inquiry points out that the interpersonal and social dimension is insufficently considered in the development of Schultz-Hencke's theory. In my opinion, this is evident in three places in his outline of psychological anthropology. In his anthropological presupposition, he sees the social dimension either only in ontological terms as antinomy between persons or in terms of individualpsychology in its intrapsychic effect and individual ways of control. In accordance with that, he does not analyse, in the term middle man, which processes between individual and reference persons make man a middle man. Finally it appears to me that the interpretation of the being and destiny of man as autonomous person reflects the same content. For this reason, I think it is not accidently that Schultz-Hencke pays so little attention to the object references of Freud, and that he does not give them their own place in his theory. In this respect, the presupposition of Schultz-Hencke must be supplemented. The ontological and psychological approach has to be combined with the discipline of social psychology. A psychoanalytical model of interaction has to be developed. But with that the anthropological goals of his psychological anthropology would also be extended in the interpersonal dimension. Next to the autonomy of the individual would come the interdependence (to use a term of social psychology) between the individual and the reference persons. In other words, the point would no longer be the autonomous self realization of the individual alone, but the autonomous self realization of the individual in interdependence.
