THE INTERNATIONAL PSYCHOANALYSIS LIBRARY
IPA Publications Committee
The International Psychoanalysis Library, published under the aegis
of the International Psychoanalytical Association, is the product of
the editorial policy of the IPA Publications Committee: to serve the
interests of the membership and increase the awareness of the rele-
vance of the discipline in related professional and academic circles,
and to do so through a continuity of publications so that the benefits
of psychoanalytic research can be shared across a wide audience.
The focus of the Library is on the scientific developments of today
throughout the IPA, with an emphasis within the discipline on clini-
cal, technical, and theoretical advances; empirical, conceptual, and
historical research projects; the outcome of investigations conducted
by IPA committees and working parties; selected material arising
from conferences and meetings; and investigations at the interface
with social and cultural expressions.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The project of this book was a suggestion from the IPA Publications
Committee, the aim being to make known the similarities and dif-
ferences between Latin American psychoanalysis and that which
is practised elsewhere, seeking to highlight wherever possible what
distinguishes the former. This project was based on the recognition
of the importance of Latin American psychoanalytic ideas and the
relatively limited knowledge of them in other areas of world psy-
choanalysis.
We would like to thank the following members of the Inter-
national Psychoanalytical Association Publications Committee for
inviting us to be the editors of this publication: Emma Piccioli (chair-
person), Peter Wegner, and Salman Akhtar. We are also grateful for
the tireless dedication and professional help of Cesare Sacerdoti and
Rhosyn Tuta, as well as the availability of Klara King in the production
of this book.
Our thanks also go to the authors and discussants for their coop-
eration, understanding, and collaboration with their tasks. Finally,
but by no means least, our thanks must go to FEPA L and their
President, Serapio Marcano, for their support in the production of
the Spanish edition of the book, which is of utmost importance to
Latin America.
