Klein is in fact proposing a re-assignment of the paternal function, in the sense of a function separating the individual from its maternal objects and constitutive of subjectivity, to the realm of the maternal. Klein's work has opened the door to new ways of considering subjectivity (British School of Object Relation Theory or ORT): a lengthened 'Oedipal' moment beginning with birth, a dualistic 'subject' present from the start and a new methodology to articulate human archaic experience and its difficulties. Julia Kristeva will subsequently stress this part of Kleinian theory to which she will add her own notion of 'abjection'.

After 1 laving made of eroticism our God and of the phallus the guarantor of identity, with Freud and Lacan, we are invited, with Klein, to replenish our ambitions for freedom in the more nigged and more archaic regions of the psyche, where the one (identity) cannot be. (Kristeva 2000: 393)
