dc.description.abstractIn this article, boundary phenomena in groups and organisations are explored using both literal experience and the metaphor of skin that can be breached when shame or tact are lacking. One pathway researches how organisations can contribute to psychosomatic group diseases associated with the failed containment of shameless aggression and thus the failed creation of an internalised reliable container. A second pathway describes the emotional experience of having and belonging to an organisation with its own skin. We define how rigid, impinging or lax containment in organisations fail to meet the dependency needs of members making them vulnerable to group diseases.por
