The present paper discusses some psychoanalytical conceptions concerning what links people to each other, or the human bond. Psychoanalysis, can be regarded as a science dealing basically with, although not directly, the human bond or link linking the person with his external and internal objects. The fact that this bond is in perpetual
transformation, and therefore can be apprehended from different angles has led to various psychoanalytical conceptions or theories which are more complementary than contradictory. These theories deal with the human bond at different stages of its formation and transformation. They have, for instance, dealt with the established bond, the interrupted bond, and the missing one and the effect it has on the person's psyche.
In this paper, I have first tried to rethink some of the principal psychoanalytical concepts, such as libido, fantasy, links, attachment, and valency, in terms of human bond, focusing thus on Freud's, Klein's, Bowlby's, and Bion's works. Then, finally I tried to introduce briefly my "valency theory" which is the result of my own extension of Bion's work,
especially his concept of valency.
