Using extensive quotation, the author reviews the introduction and current state of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy in China from the vantage point of recent publications in English. Psychoanalysis was briefly introduced to China before the Communist era, then forbidden, and has experienced an accelerated reintroduction since the late 1980s. The author briefly summarizes the cultural and historical background of China relevant to the introduction of psychoanalysis, the traumatic history of China, and the deep structure of thought and philosophical differences from Western culture that challenge a simple imposition of psychoanalytic ideas and practice, and some psychological effects of rapid cultural change throughout China. Training programs in China, the general enthusiasm for analysis among the Chinese, and a number of notable contributions by Western and Chinese authors are discussed. Also surveyed are the use of distance technology for training and treatment, the personal experience of Chinese senior and junior colleagues, and ongoing challenges to the continuing growth of psychoanalysis and analytic psychotherapy in China.
作者通过大量引用，从近期英文出版物的角度回顾了精神分析及精神分析心理治疗在中国的引入情况和现状。精神分析在共产主义时代之前曾被简要引入中国，随后被禁止，自20世纪80年代末以来经历了加速重新引入的过程。作者简要总结了与精神分析引入相关的中国文化和历史背景、中国的创伤历史、与西方文化在思想深层结构和哲学上的差异（这些差异对简单移植精神分析观念和实践构成挑战）以及中国快速文化变迁带来的一些心理影响。文中讨论了中国的培训项目、中国人对精神分析的普遍热情以及西方和中国作者的一些显著贡献。还调查了远程技术在培训和治疗中的应用、中国资深和初级同事的个人经历，以及精神分析和分析心理治疗在中国持续发展所面临的挑战。
