Excerpt from Psychoanalysis and Sociology Apart from this, there is an indirect but more promising point of contact between the two disciplines. The point is interesting were it only because psychoanalysis is in this matter sharply distinguished from the other branches of psychology, and acquires in this connexion a character peculiar to itself. I refer to those achievements of psychoanalysis which elucidate the part played by society in individual development. Psychoanalytic study has gone far to convince us that purely individual psychological categories are solely explicable through their relationships to the enviromng community. In this way psychoanalysis, without propounding the priority of society in any metaphysical sense, has been led to recognise the existence of an intimate mutual determinism between individual and society. Psychoanalysts, indeed, have been much occupied with the study of this mutual deter minism, though not so much from the stand point oi society as from that of the indi vidual, and above all from that of the psychopath.
