FALCONE, Rosa. An outline of the conditions at the onset of psychoanalytic practice in Argentina (1930-1942). Anu. investig. [online]. 2007, vol.14, pp.00-00. ISSN 1851-1686.

This paper deals with the use of psychoanalytic concepts and their application in the realm of psychotherapy in Argentina. What was the role of psychoanalysis in the period reviewed? What concepts were used and where did they come from? To what problems were these concepts applied and in what way? Who were the pioneers in this field? The answers to these questions were sought in the times prior to the foundation of the Argentine Psychoanalytic Association and the practice in hospitals. Such practices were never consolidated into a theoretical framework for psychoanalysis. The foundation of the Argentina Psychoanalytic Association in 1942 regulates the professional practice of Psychoanalysis and restrains it to the realm of private practice, thus casting a shadow upon the first times when the psychoanalytic concepts were included in the public institutions.
