The ==Jacques Lacan and the Cartel==According to [[cartelJacques Lacan]] is essentially a study group consisting of three to five people , the (though term) "[[Lacancartel]] considers four the optimum number), plus a supervisor " (known as a 'plus-one'; Fr. ''plus-un''refers to) who moderates denotes the group's workbasic working unit of a [[school]] of [[psychoanalysis]].

A The "[[cartel]] " is created when a group of people decide to work together on a particular aspect of defined (introduced) by [[psychoanalytic theoryJacques Lacan]] which is as the basic working unit of interest to them, and it is then registered in the a [[school]]'s list of [[cartelpsychoanalysis]]s.

Although participation in cartels plays an important part in the [[trainingJacques Lacan]] defines the (''formation''term) of Lacanian "[[analystcartel]]s, membership " as the basic working unit of a [[cartelschool]]s is not restricted to members of the [[schoolpsychoanalysis]].

Indeed, [[Jacques Lacan]] welcomed introduced the [[cartel]] in the exchange of ideas between [[analystFounding Act]]s and those from other disciplineson [[June 21, and saw 1964]].In the [[Founding Act]] on [[June 21, 1964]] [[Jacques Lacan]] introduced the [[cartel]] as one structure which would serve to encourage this exchange.in the following way:

By organising research work around <blockquote>"Those who enter this School will undertake to fulfil a small-scale unit like task that is subject to both internal and external supervision. In exchange they are assured that nothing will be spared in order that anything valuable they do gets the [[cartel]], [[Lacan]] hoped to avoid attention it deserves and in the effects of massification which he regarded as partly to blame for appropriate place. To carry out this work we shall adopt the sterility principle of the [[International Psychoanalytical Association]] (IPA)sustained elaboration in small groups.”</blockquote>

==The Cartel in General==(The [[cartel]] is a (working) research group (of four members) (on a particular issue or topic) that works on (that meets regularly to study a topic) topics of clinical and theoretical interest for psychoanalysis.)

The theme accumulated practice since the invention of workThe creation of a cartel is this institutional device has proved its fertility in the occasion for each member to choose a theme or ‘trait’ of work: reading of a seminarreference texts, elaboration in the study of a concept or a case, exploring fundamental concepts and in the connections ongoing investigation of psychoanalysis to other fields, etc. A common theme is added to the ‘trait’ of each member, which in turn gives the title to the cartel, under which it can be declared to the School.

The product of each memberThe work carried out does not give rise to the collective product of a knowledge that implies (This Lacanian invention takes into account the acceptance effects of the group. It is up to each one, according to the moment of his or her relation to psychoanalysisand aims, by its structure and its functioning, to verify what might have been modified in his or her relation with analytic knowledgeat limiting these as much as possible.)

The exposition A [[cartel]] is created by a group of people who decide to workThe products of together in studying a cartel may be exposed at the study days particular aspect of the cartels, [[psychoanalytic theory]] (which are the occasion for the work is of the cartel interest to be made public. Some of these works can also be made available in the different publications of the Freudian Fieldthem).

In the Founding Act of June 21, 1964, Jacques Lacan introduced the cartel for the first time in the following way:"Those who enter this School will undertake to fulfil The [[school]] organizes work around a task that is subject to both internal and external supervision. In exchange they are assured that nothing will be spared in order that anything valuable they do gets the attention it deserves and in the appropriate place.To carry out this work we shall adopt the principle of sustained elaboration in small groups-scale unit. Each group (we have a nameto designate them) will be composed of at least three people, five In a most[[school]], four research work is the right balanceorganized around a small-scale unit. Plus One responsible for the selection, the discussion and the outcome to be accorded [[Lacan]] sought to organize the research work of each.After around a certain period of functioning the elements of the group will find themselves invited to permutate into another groupsmall-scale unit."

==The Purpose of the Cartel== A forum A small group  The purpose of the [[cartel]] is to  offer an original investigation (and a) offer a novel relationship to the transmission of his teachings (carry out the) (work on) study a (crucial problem of) (topic(s)) particular aspect of [[psychoanalytic theory]] (which is of interest to them) (of [[clinical]] and [[theoretical]] interest for [[psychoanalysis]]). (through which research work in [[psychoanalysis]] can be achieved.)  ==The Members of the Cartel==<blockquote>Each group (we have a name to designate them) will be composed of at least three people, five a most, four is the right balance.”<ref>[[Founding Act]] on [[June 21, 1964]].</ref></blockquote> The [[cartel]] is a (working) study group that consists of (includes) (is composed of) (not less than) (at least) three to (nor more than) (at most) five - usually four - people (participants) (who are called "[[cartel members]]". Each group ([[cartel]]) should be composed of  In [[1980]] [[Lacan]] stated that there should only be four members in a [[cartel today]]. The accumulated [[cartel]] is not restricted to members of the [[school]]. [[Lacan]] saw the [[cartel]] as a [[structure]] that would serve to encourage the exchange of ideas between [[psychoanalyst]]s and those from other disciplines. Those interested in further reading and discussion of Lacan's works are welcome to join these study groups that are limited in number. a working device (for those who [[practice since ]] [[psychoanalysis]] and for anyone who wishes to study it) ==The Plus-One== Periodically the participants of the cartel present the invention progress of their work to an outside supervisor chosen and appointed at the start of the cartel; this institutional device has proved supervisor is called the Plus-One.   <blockquote>"The conjunction of the four is effected around a Plus One, who, although it may be anybody, must be somebody. He or she is charged with watching over the internal effects of the enterprise and of producing its fertility in elaboration."<ref>[[Lacan, Jacques]].</ref></blockquote> <blockquote>"Plus One responsible for the selection, the discussion and the outcome to be accorded to the reading work of reference textseach."<ref>[[Founding Act]] on [[June 21, in 1964]].</ref></blockquote> (This role is crucial for tactfully supporting the study work of fundamental concepts each member, handling critical moments and maintaining the distance between knowledge and truth.)(it favors the exposition of the product of the cartel's work.) A supervisor - known as a '[[plus-one]]' ([[French]]: ''[[plus-un]]'') - moderates the group's work.  The [[cartel]] has one member who functions as a "[[plus-one]]". The [[plus-one]] (as the fifth member of the [[cartel]]) is elected by the four members. The "[[plus-one]]" is the person chosen by the [[cartel]] members. The "[[plus-one]]" is the person in charge of the selection, the discussion and destination (the outcome) of the ongoing investigation (to be accorded to the) work of each member.  The function (role) of psychoanalysisthe [[plus-one]] is to ensure that the [[cartel]] works toward its designated aim. The [[plus-one]] is partly outside the group. It  The [[plus-one]] is therefore an instrument of analytic formation chosen and a basic unit appointed at the start of the Freudian Cause[[cartel]].In 1994  ==The Duration of the Cartel==<blockquote>"To avoid the effect of gluing together, it must give rise to permutation in the fixed term of a year, two at most."<ref>[[Lacan, Jacques-Alain Millar – concerned with ]].</ref></blockquote> <blockquote>"After a certain routine affecting period of functioning the functioning elements of the group will find themselves invited to permutate into another group."<ref>[[Founding Act]] on [[June 21, 1964]].</ref></blockquote> must give rise to permutation in the fixed term of a year, two at most.  The cartel lasts for no more than one or two years.  After this device period it is dissolved.  This necessary conclusion helps to avoid the inertia evident in some work groups that are never ending, which becomes an obstacle to the acquisition of new knowledge for the schools subject.  ==The Work of the WAP – produced Cartel==  ==School of Psychoanalysis==<blockquote>”Four are chosen to pursue a work that must bear a series product. A product of reflections calling each member, not collectively.”<ref>[[Lacan, Jacques]].</ref></blockquote> The creation of a cartel is the occasion for each member to choose a theme or ‘trait’ of work: reading of a seminar, elaboration of a return concept or a case, exploring the connections of psychoanalysis to other fields, etc.  The work carried out does not give rise to the essentials collective product of a knowledge that implies the "Lacanian plan"acceptance of the group. These can be found  It is up to each one, according to the moment of his or her relation to psychoanalysis, to verify what might have been modified in two texts: his or her relation with analytic knowledge. The products of a cartel may be exposed at the study days of the cartels, which are the occasion for the work of the cartel to be made public.  Some of these works can also be made available in the world different publications of the Freudian Field A cartel has a starting time and a time of completion. A small group which meets for a limited duration (with the aim)Aim of working on a crucial problem of [[psychoanalysis]]. ((The inverse cartel will continue with these members for a duration of two years, after which there will be a permutation of membership.)) Each participant is committed to producing an independent and original written research work on a shared topic.     [[Lacan]] formed the ''[[Ecole Freudienne de Psychanalyse]]'' ([[EFP]]). [[Lacan]] based his [[school]] of [[psychoanalysis]] on the [[cartel]] as its basic (working) unit. [[Lacan]] based his [[school]] - the ''[[Ecole Freudienne de Psychanalyse]]'' ([[EFP]]) - on [[cartel]] (as its basic working unit). The [[psychoanalytic]] [[school]] is based on the School:[[cartel]]. "The [[cartel]] is the basic (…working) unit of the [[school]].     SCHOOLFor [[Lacan]], the work of the [[school]] is carried out by the [[cartel]] (rather than by way of seminars, courses, conferences or debates). <blockquote>“The ethical and epistemological demand that Lacan gave voice to is supposed to be accomplished in a work, which is the work of the School, and this work is carried out by the cartel (…)".”<ref>>[[Miller, Jacques-Alain]]. “The cartel in the world.”</ref></blockquote> "(…) in <blockquote>In Lacan’s intention, the work of the School ([…) ] passed by way of the cartel. By way of the cartel, that is to say: not by way of the seminars, courses, conferences or debates. Nothing like <ref>[[Miller, Jacques-Alain]]. “The inverse of the School.”</ref></blockquote> THE CARTEL TODAY(Therefore)The [[cartel]] is an instrument of [[analytic]] [[formation]].The [[cartel]] is an instrument in the [[training]] of [[analysts]]. Most [[Lacanian associations]] continue to organize work in cartels today.The [[cartel]] has an important role in the [[training]] ([[French]]: ''[[formation]]'') of [[Lacan]]ian [[psychoanalyst]]s.   MISCELLANEOUS[[Lacan]] hoped to avoid the effects of massification which he regarded as partly to blame for the sterility of the [[International Psychoanalytical Association]] ([[IPA]]). * Four – No progress is to be expected, except that: of opening up, periodically, both the results as well as the critical moments of the work.* Five – Drawing by lots will ensure the regular renewal of the reference points created with the aim of vectorizing the cartelgroup"<ref>[[Lacan, Jacques]].</ref></blockquote>
