The journal gruppenanalyse offers space for the presentation, discussion and reflection of numerous group analytic and group dynamic topics and provides valuable insights into group analytic practice. A particular focus is on the unconscious, which is present in all human communication and thus also plays a major role in group analysis. The journal provides a forum for reflection on theory, results and findings, projects, internships, teaching groups, supervision and consulting groups. Social references are also constantly re-established and made visible. Theoretical and empirical scientific contributions, reports from practice, essays and reviews are published. The participation of the readers is explicitly desired in order to promote and keep the dialogue alive.
