Summary:Convergences between Marxism and psychoanalysis are tentatively discussed in a new way. After pointing out examples of hinging sciences and hinging authors that may be used as bridges between Marxism and psychoanalysis, the paper elucidates different conceptual points in which Marx and Freud meet. More precisely, it connects Freudian rationalisation and the Marxist concept of ideology, Freudian Eros and Marxist socialism, as well as dialectics in both Marxism and psychoanalysis.
