Winner of the 2003 Gradiva Award and the 2003 Goethe Award for Psychoanalytic ScholarshipArguing for the importance of attachment and emotionality in the developing human consciousness, four prominent analysts explore and refine the concepts of mentalization and affect regulation. Their bold, energetic, and encouraging vision for psychoanalytic treatment combines elements of developmental psychology, attachment theory, and psychoanalytic technique. Drawing extensively on case studies and recent analytic literature to illustrate their ideas, Fonagy, Gergely, Jurist, and Target offer models of psychotherapy practice that can enable the gradual development of mentalization and affect regulation even in patients with long histories of violence or neglect.

In a brilliant examination of the frontiers of human emotion and cognition, four prominent psychoanalysts combine the perspectives of developmental psychology, attachment theory and psychoanalytic technique. The result of this marriage of disciplines is a bold, energetic and ultimately encouraging vision for the psychoanalytic treatment.

»Nur alle 10 bis 15 Jahre erscheint ein Buch, das so innovativ ist wie dieses.«Martin Dornes»Das neue Fonagy-Buch wird ein neuer Daniel Stern!«Lotte Köhler Dieses Buch ist eine groß angelegte Synthese, in der es um das spannungsreiche Gegen- und Miteinander der Psychoanalyse und der Bindungstheorie geht. Es gelingt, eine Brücke zwischen den beiden Disziplinen zu schlagen, indem die Autoren das Bindungskonzept neu beleuchten. Es geht nicht mehr nur um die Herstellung von Bindung an sich, sondern darum, das Kind durch sichere Beziehungen der Art auszustatten, daß es das Verstehen mentaler Zustände im Anderen und im Selbst entwickelt. Das Konzept der Mentalisierung wird so zum zentralen Punkt für das menschliche Funktionieren im sozialen Umfeld.Unter Mentalisierung wird die Fähigkeit verstanden, auf das Verhalten eines anderen Menschen - angemessen - zu reagieren. Vereinfacht ausgedrückt befähigt Mentalisierung also, anderer Leute Gedanken und Gefühle zu »lesen«. Diese Fähigkeit entwickelt sich beim Säugling dann, wenn die Mutter seine Affektäußerungen aufnimmt und sie ihm durch ihre Mimik »widerspiegelt«. Durch diese Spiegelung erkennt das Kind seine eigenen Affekte. Menschen mit schweren Psychopathologien - das hat die Arbeitsgruppe um Fonagy festgestellt - fehlt diese Fähigkeit. Die Entwicklung einer stabilen Persönlichkeit hängt also von einer funktionierenden Beziehung mit der Mutter ab.
