Culturalist psychoanalysts

Some psychoanalysts have been labeled culturalist, or belonging to the cultural school,^[1] because of the prominence they gave on culture for the genesis of behavior.^[2] The most prominent culturalist psychoanalyst was maybe Erich Fromm,^[1] and after him Karen Horney and Harry Stack Sullivan.^[2]

They were famously in conflict with orthodox psychoanalysts.^[3] Despite their differences with orthodox psychoanalysts, they had a "stubborn maintenance of a familialist perspective," still speaking "the same language of a familialized social realm".^[3]
