In this highly condensed overview, the author sketches the present state of psychoanalysis in the United States and examines its scientific status, forms of organisation and training structures. In part one, Kernberg reflects on the debate conducted in 1989 in Psychoanalytic Quarterly on the future of psychoanalysis. In part two, he presents his own view, looking at psychoanalysis as a branch of learning, its theoretical variety, psychoanalytic treatment, training for analysts, psychoanalysis as a profession and the international situation. Although Kernberg concentrates on the American scenario, in many respects his remarks also present, mutatis mutandis, an accurate picture of the psychoanalytic landscape in Europe.
在这篇高度浓缩的综述中，作者勾勒了美国精神分析的现状，并审视了其科学地位、组织形式和培训结构。在第一部分，克恩伯格回顾了1989年在《精神分析季刊》上关于精神分析未来的辩论。在第二部分，他阐述了自己的观点，将精神分析视为一门学问的分支，探讨了其理论多样性、精神分析治疗、分析师培训、精神分析作为一种职业以及国际形势。尽管克恩伯格专注于美国的情况，但在许多方面，他的言论经适当变通后，也准确呈现了欧洲精神分析的图景。
