The thesis of this paper is that perversion should be considered a specific disorder which during psychoanalytic treatment develops a special form of transference.
It was not an easy matter for psychoanalytical research to reveal the essential unity which exists between different perversions and to find the best way to study them. When perversions were approached from the point of view of neurosis or psychosis, their autonomy and defining characteristics were hardly visible.
