The concept of "intrapsychic conflict" is probably one of the theoretical constructs on which psychoanalysis has mostly focused its attention, from its birth to the present day, both as regards formation/training and modification over time of its theoretical structure as a whole, as well as from the point of view of the construction and the progressive refinement of its psychotherapeutic technique. In this article the Author presents the main stages of this long and articulated path and concludes by describing how the concept of "intrapsychic conflict" might now be considered outdated in one of the main contemporary psychoanalytic approaches, that of Relational Psychoanalysis.
