Freud comenta que, en un diálogo publicado en un semanario humorístico de Múnich, un hombre se quejaba del carácter de las mujeres, que las convierte en complicadas y difíciles, y que su interlocutor le responde: “Sí, pero es lo mejor que tenemos en ese tipo de cosas”. Freud utiliza el comentario para afirmar, a continuación, que, para formar psicoanalistas, lo mejor que tenemos son los médicos. Lo que el personaje del semanario decía de las mujeres podría también decirse de los hombres, y lo que Freud decía de los médicos podría decirse de muchas otras cosas. Si bien es cierto que el psicoanálisis es una empresa cuyas dificultadesexigen un insospechado esfuerzo, y que trascurre perturbada por inevitables momentos de malestar en el paciente y en su psicoanalista, es lo mejor que tenemos para lograr lo que con él intentamos. Pero ¿qué es lo que intentamos? ¿De qué tipo de cosas se ocupa el psicoanálisis? Podemos preguntarnos también: ¿para qué sirve el tratamiento psicoanalítico? Y ¿cómo podemos disminuir los disgustos que el proceso ocasiona? Estas dos últimas preguntas, que han merecido la atención del psicoanálisis desde sus mismos albores y que, dada su índole, han permanecido siempre abiertas hacia nuevas indagaciones, iniciaron el camino que condujo a escribir este libro.
En esta obra, la autora recorre, desde las memorias de testigos y protagonistas -estudiantes y docentes de entonces-, el camino que siguió la psicología para, desde la creación de la Carrera en la UBA en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, constituirse en una profesión, con un campo disciplinario y práctico propio. La recolección y el análisis de testimonios originales ponen una marca distintiva a esta producción que así aporta al debate sobre el pasado y el futuro de la Universidad.
This is a fascinating history of how psychoanalysis became an essential element of contemporary Argentine culture--in the media, in politics, and in daily private lives. The book reveals the unique conditions and complex historical process that made possible the diffusion, acceptance, and popularization of psychoanalysis in Argentina, which has the highest number of psychoanalysts per capita in the world. It shows why the intellectual trajectory of the psychoanalytic movement was different in Argentina than in either the United States or Europe and how Argentine culture both fostered and was shaped by its influence. The book starts with a description of the Argentine medical and intellectual establishments’ reception of psychoanalysis, and the subsequent founding of the Argentine Psychoanalytic Association in 1942. It then broadens to describe the emergence of a "psy culture” in the 1960s, tracing its origins to a complex combination of social, economic, political, and cultural factors. The author then analyzes the role of "diffusers” of psychoanalysis in Argentina--both those who were part of the psychoanalytic establishment and those who were not. The book goes on to discuss specific areas of reception and diffusion of psychoanalytic thought: its acceptance by progressive sectors of the psychiatric profession; the impact of the psychoanalytically oriented program in psychology at the University of Buenos Aires; and the incorporation of psychoanalysis into the theoretical artillery of the influential left of the 1960s and 1970s. Finally, the author analyzes the effects of the military dictatorship, established in 1976, on the "psy” universe, showing how it was possible to practice psychoanalysis in a highly authoritarian political context.
Research into homosexuality in Spain is in its infancy. The last ten or fifteen years have seen a proliferation of studies on gender in Spain but much of this work has concentrated on women's history, literature and femininity. In contrast to existing research which concentrates on literature and literary figures, "Los Invisibles" focuses on the change in cultural representation of same-sex activity of through medicalisation, social and political anxieties about race and the late emergence of homosexual sub-cultures in the last quarter of the twentieth century. As such, this book constitutes an analysis of discourses and ideas from a social history and medical history position. Much of the research for the book was supported by a grant from the Wellcome Trust to research the medicalisation of homosexuality in Spain.

This book presents an intellectual history of the reception of Soviet psychology in Argentina as part of the communist scientific culture promoted by the Argentine Communist Party. This research reconstructs the material conditions, the political conjunctures and disciplinary disputes that allowed the international circulation of the works and ideas of Ivan Pavlov and Lev Vygotsky, and analyzes how pavlovism and vygotskianism impacted psychology, psychiatry and the wider mental health field in Argentina between 1935 and 1991. Starting on the 1930s, a group of professionals, scientists and intellectuals who belonged to the Argentine Communist Party introduced Soviet psychology in Argentina as an effort to promote the philosophical and political principles of Marxism-Leninism in Argentinean psychological and psychiatric academic circles, as well as in mental health institutions. This book shows how the efforts of this group contributed to the diffusion of communist scientific ideas and practices in South America as part of a transnational circuit of communist scholars and intellectuals that included France, Spain and the USA, which fostered scientific exchange and politicized science during the years of antifascist struggle and the Cold War. Communist Psychology in Argentina: Transnational Politics, Scientific Culture and Psychotherapy (1935-1991) will be of interest to historians of psychology and psychiatry concerned with the study of the relationship between Marxism and psychology in the 20th century, as well as to historians of science in general attentive to the study of the circulation of scientific ideas, as the book reconstructs the networks of the international communist movement as an effort to provide a scientific basis for the development of a socialist program in different parts of the world.
