Introduction As of today, the methodological framework of “wild psychoanalysis” (as conceptualized by Sigmund Freud) is commonly deemed much too speculative/unreliable to be representing much of practical value. The reason for this is quite apparent – the fact that there is no universally accepted definition as to what “wild psychoanalysis” stands for, significantly undermines the practice’s axiomatic soundness (Bateman & Holmes, 1995). At the same time, however, there can be very little doubt that the concerned psychoanalytic paradigm can indeed prove a valuable asset within the context of how one goes about gaining some preliminary insights into what accounts for the in-depth (subliminal) driving forces that define the behavioral pattern of a particular individual – especially if he or she happens to be a well-known public figure. In its turn, this presupposes that the practical application of the psychoanalytic technique in question cannot be solely concerned with addressing “psychosexual” matters. Rather, the technique’s practitioners should seek to identify the repressed primordial (limbic) anxieties that can be assumed to have had a strong effect on such a person’s spatially stable tendency to react to the externally induced stimuli in one way or another (Dimen, 2014). In my paper, I will explore the validity of this suggestion at length, for Lee Kuan Yew (1923-2015) – the first Prime Minister of Singapore, who held the chair for three decades (1959-1990) and who is credited with having enabled the transformation of Singapore from yet another impoverished former British colony in South-East Asia into one of the world’s most economically developed countries, the citizens of which can enjoy an unprecedented (especially as for the region) prosperity. Analysis The Oedipus Complex Throughout his life, Lee Kuan Yew never ceased praising Britain on account of this country’s advanced system of jurisprudence, which according to him proved the most important prerequisite for the British colonial administration in Malaya to be able to function with utmost efficiency. In fact, Lee Kuan Yew never made a secret of his admiration of the British, because of these people’s ability to act as the “natural-born masters” in their colonies, before the disintegration of the “classical” British Empire in 1945. As he pointed out, “The British were there (in Malaya) because they were superior. They knew how to govern our people with innate greater ability” ( Transcript of an interview , 1965, p. 2). At the same time, however, it was named the growing popularity of the People’s Action Party (founded by Lee Kuan Yew in 1954) that resulted in putting an end to the British rule in the region. According to Teo (2015), “Founding the People’s Action Party… LKY rallied together a group of like-minded individuals to campaign for British withdrawal, ultimately resulting in the independence of the Malayan Federation in 1963” (p. 2). Because Lee Kuan Yew appears to have simultaneously loved and hated the British, this provides us with a certain rationale to discuss such his behavioral tendency in conjunction with the Freudian outlook on the origins and discursive significance
