The psychoanalyst's ethic is, first, everybody ethic. The peculiarities of the analytic cure and the conditions which do it possible are introducing a specific ethic dimension to the method itself. The author is arguing that there is an ethic of the method, inside his own limits and demands. “Ethics codes” published by each psychoanalytic society, more deontological than ethics, poorly cover what is the basis of psychoanalytic ethic.
