Michèle Bertrand, Bernard Doray, Psychoanalysis, Social Science and Society : A Global Perspective A broad consideration of psychoanalysis and the social sciences in France can be seen as a labyrinth formed by five different approaches : the freudologues, the clinical sociologists, the structuralistic shortcuts, the psychograph and the psychoanalysts who carefully avoid therapeutic concerns. Today, the incentive to bridge the gap between psychoanalysis and the social sciences has almost disappeared. There are, however, new poles of initiative such as the new clinic in the study of pauperization, which is informed both by sociology and psychoanalysis.
