"The Missouri Institute of Mental Health (MIMH)
was founded in 1962, as the Missouri Institute of Psychiatry. MIMH has a
long history
of training and educating professionals and the public about mental
illness. Originally established as the research and training arm of the Missouri
Department of Mental Health (DMH), in 1974 the Missouri Legislature
transferred the Institute to the University
of Missouri-Columbia (UMC). Although the Institute reports to the
Dean of the School of
Medicine at UMC , it retains strong ties to the DMH. All MIMH
faculty hold appointments in the University's Department of Psychiatry
& Neurology."
I am interested in raising a number of what seem to me to be
urgent questions about our theory and practice by exploring these in the
light of social changes. For me, the problems revolve around our
understanding of heterosexuality. So long as we do not try to correlate
our theories of psychic life with social conditions - whether these seem
'universal' or specific - without our intending it, they will become
reflective of these very conditions. Indeed, I think this has already
happened, in relation to both the castration complex and to
mother-infant relations.
