title: [Psychoanalytic therapy. An orientation on Freudian psychoanalysis].
abstract: About a century after the creation of psychoanalysis and more than 35 years after the first, and only, article about psychoanalysis in this journal, the author gives a review of contemporary theory and practice. The meta-scientific position of psychoanalysis is mentioned briefly and it is emphasized that Freudian psychoanalysis is simultaneously an investigation of the mind and a treatment. It is described how contemporary members of The International Psycho-Analytical Association (i.a. The Danish Psychoanalytical Society) practise. New psychoanalytical theory and its clinical impact is reviewed. The rules for the long psychoanalytic training are stated. Finally, it is described how psychoanalytic knowledge is applied technically on a large scale particularly in the form of psychotherapy.
