Abstract

The difference between laic and professional analysis has been identifying of EMCA from its earliest days. This paper attempts to press the difference in the contemporary CA literature by examining studies wherein a professional analysis fails to find or retreats from the laic record, and a ‘gap’ is produced in the analytic narrative that then becomes a site for the insertion of constructive-analytic dispositions to fill it. The tensions (and continuities) between members’ methods and their laic reckonings, and the promise of something prior, formal, and more enduring that can eclipse them are the ‘fraught relations’ of the title phrase.
