==AggressionAmbivalence==[[AggressionLacan]] draws a [[distinction]] between [[aggressivity]] and [[aggressivity|aggression]]: [[aggressivity|aggression]] refers only to [[violence|violent]] [[act]]s whereas [[aggressivity]] is a fundamental relation which underlies not only such [[acts ]] but many [[other ]] phenomena also.<ref>{{S1}} p.177</ref>[[Lacan]] argues that [[aggressivity]] is just as [[present]] in apparently [[love|loving]] [[act]]s as in violent ones; it "underlies the [[activity]] of the philanthropist, the idealist, the pedagogue, and even the reformer.<ref>{{E}} p. 7</ref> [[Lacan]] is simply restating [[Freud]]'s [[concept]] of [[ambivalence]] -- the interdependence of [[love]] and [[hate]], which [[Lacan]] regards as one of the fundamental discoveries of [[psychoanalysis]].
==Dual Relation==[[Lacan]] argues that situates [[aggressivity]] is just in the [[dual relation]] between the [[ego]] and the [[counterpart]]. In the [[mirror stage]], the [[infant]] sees its [[reflection]] in the [[mirror]] as present a [[wholeness]], in apparently loving acts contrast with the uncoordination in the [[real]] [[body]]: this contrast is experienced as in violent ones; it "underlies an [[aggressivity|aggressive tension]] between the activity of [[specular image]] and the philanthropist[[real]] [[body]], since the idealist, [[wholeness]] of the [[image]] seems to threaten the pedagogue, [[body]] with [[fragmented body|disintegration]] and even the reformer.<ref>{{E}} p[[fragmentation]].7</ref>
==Narcissism== The consequent [[Lacanidentification]] is simply restating with the [[Freudspecular image]]'s concept of thus implies an [[ambivalence (|ambivalent]] relation with the interdependence of [[lovecounterpart]], involving both [[eroticism]] and [[hateaggressivity|aggression]]), which . This "[[Lacanaggressivity|erotic aggression]] regards " continues as one a fundamental [[ambivalence]] underlying all [[future]] forms of [[identification]], and is an essential characteristic of [[narcissism]]. [[Narcissism]] can thus easily veer from extreme [[love|self-love]] to the fundamental discoveries opposite extreme of "[[narcissism|narcissistic suicidal aggression]]" (''[[psychoanalysisagression]]suicidaire narcissique'').<ref>{{Ec}} p.187</ref>
==Treatment==
[[Lacan]] argues that it is important to bring the [[analysand]]'s [[aggressivity]] into play early in the [[treatment]] by causing it to emerge as [[negative]] [[transference]]. This [[aggressivity]] directed towards the [[analyst]] then becomes "the initial [[knot]] of the [[analytic]] drama."<ref>{{E}} p.14</ref> This [[phase]] of the [[treatment]] is very important since if the [[aggressivity]] is handled correctly by the [[analyst]], it will be accompanied by "a marked decrease in the [[patient]]'s deepest [[resistances]].<ref>{{L}} "[[Works of Jacques Lacan|Some Reflections on the Ego]]", ''Int. J. [[Psycho]]-[[Anal]]''., vol. 34, 1953: p. 13</ref>
