- This is the first published article of Pichon-Rivičre in English known to his estate. It is the product of a joint effort of the Latin-American Federation for Analytical Group Psychotherapy (FLAPAG) and FORUM - Journal of the International Association for Group Psychotherapy and Group Processes to make Pichon-Rivičre's work better known to the English speaking community. The present text is the transcription of a class originally given by Dr. Enrique Pichon-Rivičre on 13 May 1970. It was first published by Temas de Psicologia Social, year 4, number 3, September 1980 and later incorporated into the second edition of ‘El Processo Grupal' Ediciones Nueva Visión, Buenos Aires, 1985. It is published here with the authorization of the Pichon-Rivičre family whom we thank deeply. Translated by Pablo de Carvalho Godoy Castanho (FLAPAG) and Teresa von Sommaruga Howard (FORUM) from the Spanish original collated against the French translation by Daničle Faugeras.

History Of

In 1824, José Cecilio del Valle presented to the Constituent Assembly of Central America a portrait of “Jorge Washington.” One of a number of such gestures, the presentation has no special significance. History would be no poorer if the record of the act had been lost forever. But if Valle could have chosen from his distinguished career a single moment to convey the image he wished to cast in the pages of history, he well might have selected the instant when the likeness of Washington passed from his hands to the waiting ones of the president of the Assembly. The scene would have been impressive on canvas. Stripped of flesh, his features showing signs of scholarship's discipline, Valle bends slightly from the waist, arms outstretched, offering the gift — his promise to dedicate himself to the success of the nation that Central Americans were trying to build.But Valle had his own notions as to how Central America could succeed. Steeped in the history of the New World as well as of the Old, he thought the success of the Federation of Central America depended a great deal on the success of all new American nations. This is not to say, however, that he doubted that Central Americans could build a nation from their own resources.

- This paper gives a brief historic overview of IAGP. When the first International Congress of Group Psychotherapy was held in Toronto, Canada, in 1954, J L Moreno initiated the formation of the International Committee of Group Psychotherapy whose name was later changed to the International Council of Group Psychotherapy. At the fifth International Congress of Group Psychotherapy held in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1973, the name was again changed and the International Association of Group Psychotherapy (IAGP) was born. Approximately every third year since that time an International Congress has taken place at different cities around the world. At the Board Meeting during the sixteenth International Congress held in Sao Paulo, Brazil in 2007, it was decided to change the name to the International Association for Group Psychotherapy and Group Processes to reflect the larger interests of members. It will be under this name that the seventeenth International Congress will be held in Rome. In addition to the major International Congresses, Pacific Rim Regional Congresses and Regional Mediterranean Congresses have also been successfully organised, always attracting large numbers of participants. Since 1973 a number of subgroups have been formed for the different branches of Group Psychotherapy. The development of IAPG has been possible only because of the commitment of Board members and volunteers.

Os profissionais envolvidos na prática grupal enfrentam desafios éticos característicos do contexto grupal. Buscando contribuir para a reflexão sobre o discurso ético nas práticas grupais, esse artigo tem por objetivo compreender de que forma as normatizações éticas de organizações voltadas à prática grupal descrevem e propõem a ética em grupo. Metodologicamente, realizamos uma análise crítica dos principais temas presentes nos documentos da American Group Psychotherapy Association, International Association for Group Psychotherapy and Group Processes e Association of Specialists in Group Work. A análise identificou: a) princípios de bioética principialista em todos os documentos; b) diferentes descrições de grupo, coordenador e participante; e c) ênfase ética no terapeuta como profissional, mais do que na prática grupal. A análise realizada sugere que os documentos buscam contribuir com a institucionalização da profissão e respondem a uma demanda social por responsabilização pela prática profissional.

This volume vividly demonstrates the importance and increasing breadth of quantitative methods in the earth sciences. With contributions from an international cast of leading practitioners, chapters cover a wide range of state-of-the-art methods and applications, including computer modeling and mapping techniques. Many chapters also contain reviews and extensive bibliographies which serve to make this an invaluable introduction to the entire field. In addition to its detailed presentations, the book includes chapters on the history of geomathematics and on R.G.V. Eigen, the "father" of mathematical geology. Written to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the International Association for Mathematical Geology, the book will be sought after by both practitioners and researchers in all branches of geology.
