| [[1948]]| ''L'agressivité en [[psychanalyse]]''<BR>[[Aggressivity in Psychoanalysis|Aggressivity in psychoanalysis]]

This [[theoretical ]] report was read at the Eleventh Congress of [[French]]-[[Speaking ]] [[Psychoanalysts ]] in Brussels, May 1948.

This theoretical report was read at the XI Conférence des Psychanalystes de [[Langue ]] Française in Brussels, May 1948.

Its [[objective ]] was to give [[psychoanalysis]] the status of a [[science]], by making [[aggressivity]] into a [[concept]], and by proving that [[psychoanalysis|analytic experience]] could, in its own way, provide results capable of founding "a positive science."

[[Lacan]]'s conception of [[therapy ]] is clear here; [[analytic ]] [[technique ]] is useful for setting into play the motivating forces of [[aggressivity]], in [[particular ]] [[transference|negative transference]], the "inaugural [[knot ]] of the analytic drama."

In [[order ]] to fight against the [[ego]] of [[méconnaissance|misconstruction]] (''[[méconnaissance]]''], "maieutics" must operate through a detour, "to induce a guided [[paranoia]]," and from there it is possible to [[work]].

These theses and the [[practice ]] that they subte~d would give rise to many discussions and arguments.

However, what remains specific [[about ]] [[psychoanalysis|analytic experience]] is the fact that it takes [[place ]] entirely in [[speech]].

Only [[Oedipal]] [[identification]] with the [[father]] is pacifying and allows for [[social ]] and [[cultural ]] [[creativity]].
