Gurevich, P. S. Freud’s Theory of Personalities

Abstract: Freud’s most anthropological achivement was his theory of personalities. Freud did not only show that a person does not quite understand his internal drivers and uses rationalization to defend himself from realizing them. Freud also explained that these unrealized drivers are integrated into an entire system called ‘character’. Freud’s theory of personalities help to explain the System Theory which has been used in natural sciences since the beginning of XX century (especially in biology and neurophysiology) as well as in some social sciences.
