Journal overview

Published eight times a year, Psychoanalytic Inquiry (PI) retains distinction in the world of clinical publishing as a genuinely monographic journal. By dedicating each issue to a single topic, PI achieves a depth of coverage and diversity of perspective unique to the journal format. By virtue of the topical focus of each issue, it functions as a monograph series covering the most timely issues - theoretical, clinical, developmental, and institutional - before the field.

The current issue is titled "Erich Fromm’s Relevance for Our Troubled World," edited by Mauricio Cortina. Erich Fromm became a major psychoanalyst and public intellectual with the publication of his first book Escape from Freedom in 1941. In this book, he analyzed the historical trends that led to the rise of Nazi Germany. Fromm was the only psychoanalyst of his generation that embarked on an analysis of the rise of fascism and authoritarianism as it took root in Germany. Through his many books and articles, Fromm used psychoanalysis to examine other social pathologies that are hidden and normalized through socially constructed filters and ideologies. Fromm's call for a radical—socially oriented—humanistic perspective is more relevant now than ever. This issue contains articles by Peter L. Rudnytsky Ph.D., LCSW, Roger Frie Ph.D., Lynne Layton Ph.D., Rainer Funk Ph.D., Ilene Philipson Ph.D., Psy.D., Neil McLaughlin Ph.D., Neil Wegenschimmel M.A., Matheus Capovilla Romanetto M.Sc., Julio Boltvinik Ph.D., Mauricio Cortina M.D., Sandra Buechler Ph.D., Daniel Burston Ph.D. and Lynn S. Chancer Ph.D.


The forthcoming issue is titled "The Emergence and Education of the Psychoanalytic Mind," edited by Stephen Bernstein. Authors will discuss the developmental processes involved in learning to think analytically by examining the workings of educational institutions as well as unique individual dimensions of this phenomenon.
