Resumo: Este artigo explora consequências epistemológicas e políticas de se realizar pesquisa de fenômenos sociais com um olhar psicanalítico dentro da universidade, tanto para a psicanálise, o campo social e a própria universidade. No início estabelecemos a relação entre ciência e psicanálise, o que nos permite refletir sobre a participação da psicanálise na universidade e as tensões clássicas desse intercambio. Em seguida, apresentamos o impasse de se pesquisar fenômenos sociais com a psicanálise face à indissociabilidade de teoria, método e clínica. Nossa chave de leitura é a teoria dos discursos da psicanálise lacaniana, indicando o potencial político dessa modalidade de pesquisa ao causar subversões nas formas de poder e dominação discursiva na universidade, nas instituições de psicanálise e no campo social.Palavras-chave: Fenômenos sociais; Pesquisa psicanalítica; Teoria dos discursos; Psicanálise; Subversão. Psychoanalytic research on social phenomena in university: political potentiality within subversion of discoursesAbstract: This paper explores the epistemological and political consequences of conducting research on social phenomena from a psychoanalytic perspective within the university, for the psychoanalysis, the social field and the university. In the beginning, we established the relationship between science and psychoanalysis, which allows us to reflect on the psychoanalysis participation in the university and the classic tensions of this exchange. Next, we present the impasse of researching social phenomena from the psychoanalysis taking in account the indissociability between theory, method and clinic. Our theoretical perspective is the discourses theory of Lacanian psychoanalysis, indicating the political potential of this research modality by causing subversions in the forms of power and discursive domination in the university, in the institutions of psychoanalysis and in the social field.Keywords: Social phenomena; Psychoanalytical research; Discourses theory; Psychoanalysis; Subversion.

Unexpected Findings

Hysteria offers a particularly appropriate discourse for bringing out the unconscious, since its symptoms show how, through conversion, mental suffering manifests itself as bodily. Analytical work creates a transfer clinic and relies on a specific use of the word, which leads to unexpected findings. The development of the psychoanalytic approach today makes it clear that in order to understand hysteria, it must not be equated with femininity. The main issue of the hysterical subject is actually the issue of gender difference. Lacanian psychoanalysis introduces the idea of giving up the body in hysteria and associates the hysterical symptom with a lack of identification.

The Relationship

The essay takes a narrow angle view of the relationship between law and psychoanalysis, through the concept of the Real in Lacanian psychoanalysis; the Real as distinguished from ‘reality’; where (everyday) reality is a ‘phantasy construction’ (as against realist readings of reality) and Real is that which is either marking (i) the inassimilable or (ii) the foreclosed (Verwerfung); in this chapter, the inassimilable or the foreclosed of Law. Building on Freud’s reply (dated September 1932) to Einstein on ‘war’, the essay argues that while we have hitherto pitted ‘right’ against ‘might’, law against force and have assumed that it is the discourse of right(s) that counters the discourse of might, and it is law that counters the perpetration of force, Freud shows how the discourse of right(s) and Law is also premised on the foreclosure of a ‘fundamental signifier’: ‘community might’ and how subsequent transitions (that is, humanizations), in the discourse of right(s) and law keeps the signifier ‘community might’ crypted. Freud thus questions the assumed transformation from might to right; he shows it to be a transition from one kind of might (individual might) to another kind of might (community might). Partha Chatterjee’s The Prince and the Sannyasi (2011) helps us instantiate the question of the Real of Law: Real as inassimilable and as foreclosed; including the Discourse of Law as the (im)possible neurotic suture of eros and the Discourse of Law as a delusional veil over the secret support of the praxis of law: community might. The chapter shows how perhaps it was community might that had operated as ground, affect, and drive for an ‘unusual trial’ in Bengal in the 1930s and a judgment which looked to be a discourse of (not-so-sound) evidence, and (not-so-sound) interpretation around questions of identity and a ‘crucial event whose reconstruction formed the core of the [identity] dispute in court’.
