=====Signification=====
The term thus emphasizes the different ways in which [[Saussure]] and [[Lacan]] conceive of [[signification]]; for [[Saussure]], [[signification]] was a stable bond between [[signifier]] and [[signified]], but for [[Lacan]] it is an unstable, fluid relationship.

=====Psychosis=====
When there are not enough ''[[points de capiton]]'', as is in the case in [[psychosis]], the slippery movement of [[signification]] is endless, and stable meanings dissolve altogether.
