Psychoanalysis in the Community: From Clinical Seclusion to Scientific Connectivity

This article examines the internal limitations of contemporary psychoanalysis that hinder its meaningful engagement with society and the broader scientific community. The fragmentation of schools, the self-referential closure of theory, and its disconnection from lived experience create a modern “Babel,” where conceptual proliferation no longer translates into shared understanding. Through the Narcissistic Spectrum of Positions, psychoanalysis is repositioned as a dynamic framework capable of interpreting human experience across individual, relational, and collective levels. At the same time, the paper highlights the necessity of scientific connectivity, opening psychoanalysis toward neuroscience, sociology, political theory, and physics, so that it may re-emerge as an active and relevant mode of understanding contemporary reality.
