Journal overview

The International Journal of Psychoanalysis is a fully peer reviewed journal published six times a year (February, April, June, August, October and December) since its merger with The International Review of Psycho-Analysis in 1994. It publishes extensive contributions by authors throughout the world - facilitated by a system of international editorial boards and the policy of allowing submission and review in six languages, followed by translation of accepted papers at the Journal's expense.

Originally founded by Ernest Jones in collaboration with Sigmund Freud in 1920, the Journal publishes contributions on Psychoanalytic Theory & Technique, The History of Psychoanalysis, Clinical Contributions, Education & Professional Issues, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, Interdisciplinary Studies, and Film Essays. The Journal also publishes the main papers and panel reports from the International Psychoanalytical Association's Congresses, book reviews, obituaries, and correspondence.

The Journal also publishes selected papers in the IJP Annuals currently offered in eight different languages.
