From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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]
