Summary "Psycho-Analysis and the War Neuroses" by Drs. S. Ferenczi, Karl Abraham, Ernst Simmel, and Ernest Jones is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work explores the influence of World War I on mental health, specifically focusing on war-related neuroses and the application of psycho-analytic theories to understand and treat these conditions. It brings together various contributors, including notable figures in psycho-analysis, to discuss the psychological impacts of war experiences and the therapeutic potential of psycho-analysis. The beginning of the text opens with an introduction by Sigmund Freud, emphasizing the relevance of war neuroses at the time and the missed opportunities for in-depth investigations due to the war’s end. It sets the stage for subsequent discussions that will feature contributions from several psychoanalysts, who evaluate the relationship between trauma and neurotic symptoms observed in soldiers. Freud highlights the shift in perception from purely organic explanations of these neuroses to a recognition of psychological factors, illustrated by various theories opposing or supporting different neurological viewpoints. The text illustrates a growing acknowledgment among specialists of the need to incorporate psycho-analytic insights into the understanding and treatment of war-related psychological conditions.
