In my opinion, does not exist the a unique man or woman who is the best in my field, since I think that there is no one that give full or integral answers to every questions that the psychology has arised. If I had to mention someone actually will be very hard, nevertheless I might mention Horacio Foladori, Sigmund Freud, Melanie Klein, Enrique Pichon Riviere, D. W. Winnicott and if I had to choose only one, I would choose Pichon Riviere and who continue his labor inside the operative groups, specially the Argentineans who have achieved a good work in their country.
Enrique Pichon Riviere was a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, one of that introduced the psychoanalysis in Argentina and one of the founders of the Psychoanalytic Association Argentina. He created a social theory that interprets the individual as the resultant of their relation with external and internal objects. Finally he founded the School of Social Psychology
In my opinion the best thing that he did during his career was the "operative groups ". In the Hospicio de la Merced one of his first works was organize groups of nurses and to instruct them in the treatment of the patients; due to the mistreatment that they gave to patients was a great problem. In these circumstances he developed the technique “Operative Group ", " ... in these groups I was discussing with the nurses the different cases that existed, I try to give them a general view of the psychiatry. The learning of the nurses was surprising … They had great experience, but their difficulty was that they could not conceptualize; then this experience was not serving them for anything ... ". The conditions improved greatly.
Then this is the theory of Operative Group, which I admire particularly and It technique it seems admirable to me, I expect to have the ability to implement it.
I hope that you also know it. Good-bye and see you soon.
