Jung The Psychology of the Transference Practicing psychoanalysts regularly encounter problems characterized by a conflict of duties and the call of opposing ethical demands.
Jungian analysts feel that such conflicts are best resolved through an honest inner struggle.
These guidelines are meant to serve as an aid in that endeavor. The ultimate criterion of ethical behavior is the conscience of the individual who has wrestled with the ethical issues involved in any given situation. However, the ethical results arrived at by an individual are not binding on the community or society at large. Like the individual, every community has a right, and an obligation, to define its own standards and values. At times, the demands of individual conscience come into conflict with the accepted social values.
