Horney, Karen
Born: September 16, 1885 in Hamburg
[Died] December 4, 1952. New York German-born American female psychoanalyst. Maiden name Danielsen. Her father was Norwegian and her mother was Dutch. She graduated from the Medical University of Berlin in 1912. While studying there, she received training in psychoanalysis under K. Abraham. In addition to her medical practice, she worked as a training analyst at the Berlin Psychoanalytic Institute and became famous in the field of psychiatric treatment. In 1932, she moved to the United States (naturalized in 1938) and became vice director of the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute. In 1934, she opened a practice in New York, taught at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and the School for Social Research, and trained psychoanalysts. In 1939, she wrote New Ways in Psychoanalysis, emphasizing the importance of social and environmental factors in the formation of personality and criticizing S. Freud's biological pansexual theory. This drew criticism from the orthodox Freudians, and in 1941 she founded the Society for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis. She believed that the main cause of the onset of neurosis was the capitalist social structure, and she also conducted pioneering research on the historical and social subordinate position of women.
