The aim of the article is to understand the “rescue phantasy” of the analyst. Ferenczi was the first psychonanalyst who brought forward this issue. However, few succeeding analysts wrote on this phantasy without mentioning him. Ferenczi based his conceptualization on his own experiences with patients. Thus he realized that one can harm somebody with the “rescue phantasy”. He warned the professionals to take care of their unconscious saving phantasies. It is also important to note that on the social level this phantasy may be used by the political power that will result in a social catastrophe later.
