THE ACTUAL TRENDS IN GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY

Abstract

This is a democratic Congress in which all methods, major or minor, have been given a place in the sun. Its very organization is based on a process of democratic legality. Group psychotherapists have come to Milan from all over the world. Many of the scientific stars have taken a backseat in order to give the new generation a word. Although the most important forerunners have been doctors of medicine, group psychotherapy is not an exclusively medical discipline. Scientists from many disciplines have made contributions toward it, psychologists, sociologists, educators, ministers and others, and they have received a fair representation on the program of this Congress.
