From the introduction: “When his educational team was rebuilt after World War II, Aichhorn emerged not only as Vorstand but also as President of the re-established Psychoanalytic Society in Vienna. During the decade in which his own action was submerged and interrupted, his work continued everywhere on a world-wide scale. His book, Wayward Youth has become a kind of gospel and his papers the epistles to everyone whose work with juvenile delinquency was oriented to the psychological theories and methods Aichhorn h a ddevel- oped. Yet his popularity remained restricted to the circles of psychoanalysts and of social workers. Therefore the volume presented here has a twofold aim: first, to give Aichhorn the satisfaction that his work has ripened in science and practice everywhere, secondly, to expand and enhance ever further the popularity of his work. Psychoanalysis has become - whether accepted or debated - one of the main theoretical and practical bases of all professions dealing with human personality. ..”
