Psychoanalysis and Politics

(Lecture in French language)

 

There is a politics of psychoanalysis. It dates back to Freud and is defined by the aims of the psychoanalytic cure. All other political questions derive from it, in particular the one of its influence on the general discourse. When Freud arrived in New York with Ferenczi, he thought that psychoanalysis would bring »the plague«, for Lacan, it is subversion; but the question of its function is still unresolved. And then there are the divisions, different currents, the multiple apples of discord that all raise the question of what is left of political unity of … the psychoanalysis.

 

La psychanalyse et le politique

(Conférence en français)

 

Il y a une politique de la psychanalyse. Elle date de Freud et se définit par les finalités propres d'une cure psychanalytique. Toutes les autres questions politiques en découlent, celle notamment de son incidence dans le discours commun. Freud arrivant à New York avec Ferenczi pensait que la psychanalyse y apportait « la peste », pour Lacan elle est une subversion, mais la question de sa fonction est toujours en suspens. Et puis il y a les divisions, les courants divers, les pommes de discorde multiples qui posent la question de ce qui reste d'unité politique à … La psychanalyse
