This article proposes a conceptual excursus that explains the foundations of the subjective group-analytical approach and their link with the technique. After explaining the involvement of other disciplines in the foundation of subjective group analytic metapsychology (complexity theory, methodological hermeneutics, cultural anthropology, neuroscience), it focuses on the relational foundation of the self, retracing the major Foulkesian contributions and their evolution in Italy. Finally, it underlines some fundamental concepts of the functioning of a classical analytical group, some of the therapist's main responsibilities and some of the patients' major difficulties.
