Drawing on the perspectives of Klein and Lacan, who are the most creative successors of Freudian psychoanalysis, this study tried to better understand the character development and subjectification in our contemporary world. The discussion on the personality development and subjectificaton from Klein and Lacan shows that despite the differences in the surface, the constructive dialogue and discussion between these theories are valuable asset for our educational practice. With the focus on the intertwined relationship between eros and thanatos, Klein’s dialectic of subject formation can be explained as three keywords: Love, Guilt and Reparation while the Lacan’s dialectics of subject formation could be interpreted as Desire, Otherness and Sublimation. Klein and Lacan help us to better understand the personality development and subjectificaion, and thus help us to foster new subjects, ethical subjects, giving us rich educational resources for that matters.
