In the case history of his treatment of the Rat Man, Freud raises no questions about the psychological consequences for the Rat Man of the moral orientation conventional in his (and Freud's) society. That it would have been useful to raise these questions is suggested by what I see as the thinness of Freud's understanding of the Rat Man's life struggles and by the profoundly questionable results of Freud's treatment of the Rat Man.
