The concept of aggression in the work of Freud, Klein and Winnicott. - 100 p.

Advisers: Nancy McWilliams; Lew Gantwerk.

Thesis (Psy.D.)--Rutgers The State University of New Jersey, Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology, 2005.

In psychoanalytic literature and clinical discourse today, the meaning of the term "aggression" is often unclear. Given that the contemporary use of the term is built upon the foundations set by early psychoanalysts, this theoretical study explores the varied ways aggression was conceptualized by Sigmund Freud, Melanie Klein and D.W. Winnicott, respectively. Each theorist described aggression as a particular kind of phenomenon and consequently had distinct, although sometimes only implicit, definitions for the term. For Freud and Klein, aggression was understood as some-thing in our bodies, the rather concretized manifestation of a death instinct forever generating particular urges within us. In contrast, Winnicott described aggression largely as a process, an ephemeral activity that may or may not take place between people. These theorists variously define aggression as destructive cellular energy (Freud), hard-wired animosity (Klein), and a calling out for human responsiveness (Winnicott). Related to their respective concepts of aggression, each theorist also held particular ideas about the causes of harm and hostility. After 1920, Freud asserted that people have an inborn tendency toward self-destruction. In accordance with his economic model of the psyche, he also thought that people may be hostile to others in an effort to reduce destructive energy that would otherwise be self-directed. Klein amplified this idea, stating that this dissolving and destructive intent is the primary human motivation. In contrast to his predecessors, Winnicott believed that people are not naturally inclined to harm or destroy, although he recognized that humans may end up doing so if their more basic needs for stability and connection are somehow threatened.
