Abstract

If we analysts are interested in the culture in which we live, it is because it has an impact on analytic practice. The clinic is not impervious to the contemporary state of the culture that disembarks with its dominant discourses on the couches. The theories of malaise depend on the era in which we live. In psychoanalysis, there is no way of being aware of this malaise except through its spokesperson, the symptom, which has always had a formal envelope, a mode of presentation that depends on the Other to whom it refers. The epochs, defined by the predominance of the prevailing discourses, vary. The Victorian era in which Freud founded psychoanalysis is different from the present one: in the former, the tendency was towards the repression of sexual satisfaction, in the latter towards its promotion. If the times change, psychoanalysis is obliged to reconsider its "intervention in the social," and this becomes a subject of permanent debate.
