La violencia no es un tema que se recorta y se separa de la experiencia humana. Ya sea con versiones más crueles o más sutiles, transgresoras, ilegales o socialmente aceptadas, en diferentes ámbitos privados o públicos, aparecen fenómenos de violencia. La clave es articular este fenómeno con los determinantes inconscientes que ponen al sujeto en esta escena social. En este libro se agrupan algunos trabajos sobre dos temas ampliamente trabajados en el VEL: La violencia de género y el racismo. Ambos comparten una lógica en común: "el odio al goce del Otro". Pero al mismo tiempo tienen expresiones muy distintas. La diferencia se establece entre un hecho que se desarrolla en el ámbito privado, generalmente entre dos personas por un lado y los fenómenos que requieren de una lógica colectiva o de "masa" por el otro. El VEL, Violencia, estudios lacanianos se inició en 2008 como departamento de investigación del ICdeBA y desde entonces viene trabajando el concepto de violencia porque, a pesar de no ser un término psicoanalítico, se impone por la importancia social y la diversidad de expresiones que tiene en nuestros días.
El lector tiene en sus manos el resultado de unas productivas conversaciones desarrolladas en octubre del año 2018 en Buenos Aires en ocasión de las Primeras Jornadas del Observatorio sobre Políticas del Autismo, organizadas por la EOL (Escuela de la Orientación Lacaniana) y la FAPOL (Federación Americana de Psicoanálisis de Orientación Lacaniana). El tema, no por más general es menos decisivo: "Autismo. Problemas Cruciales para el Psicoanálisis". El autismo se ha convertido, en efecto, en un tema clínico, epistémico y político de primer orden para el psicoanálisis, en un verdadero asunto de civilización, en una elección decisiva del modo de tratar al sujeto de nuestro tiempo.

Este livro levanta um debate que permanece pouco explorado: a masculinidade na psicanálise. Inúmeros trabalhos têm sido produzidos no campo psicanalítico sobre a complexidade que envolve a feminilidade, mas pouco se perguntou sobre o tornar-se homem, sobretudo, na contemporaneidade, quando o declínio do ideal viril começa a dar sinais. Como podemos pensar a sexuação do homem do século XXI? O que é ser homem hoje em dia? E como responder a essa pergunta indo além dos semblantes? Poderiam as mudanças culturais e relacionais provocadas pelo feminismo produzir algum impacto no processo de sexuação do homem entendido a partir da lógica do todo-fálico, amparado pela exceção do ao menos um? Enfim, trata-se de questionamentos que a autora busca percorrer apostando em uma discussão orientada pela psicanálise, mas feita a partir de interlocuções e costuras com outros campos de saber, no qual se inclui a História, o Feminismo e os Estudos de Gênero.
‘There was a time when I felt that I had grasped Lacan’s essential being from within – that I had gained, as it were, an apperception of his relation to the world, a mysterious access to that intimate place from which sprang his relation to people and things, and even to himself. It was as if I had slipped within him.’ In this short book, Catherine Millot offers a richly evocative reflection on her life as analysand and lover of the greatest psychoanalyst since Freud. Dwelling on their time together in Paris and in Lacan’s country house in Guitrancourt, as well as describing their many travels, Millot provides unparalleled insights into Lacan’s character as well as his encounters with other major European thinkers of the time. She also sheds new light on key themes, including Lacan’s obsession with the Borromean knot and gradual descent into silence, all enlivened by her unique perspective. This beautifully written memoir, awarded the André Gide Prize for Literature, will be of interest to anyone wishing to understand the life and character of a thinker who continues to exert a wide influence in psychoanalysis and across the humanities and social sciences.

A wide-ranging overview of the emergence of post-foundationalism and a survey of the work of its key contemporary exponents.This book presents the first systematic coverage of the conceptual difference between 'politics' (the practice of conventional politics: the political system or political forms of action) and 'the political' (a much more radical aspect which cannot be restricted to the realms of institutional politics). It is also the first introductory overview of post-foundationalism and the tradition of 'left Heideggerianism': the political thought of contemporary theorists who make frequent use of the idea of political difference: Jean-Luc Nancy, Claude Lefort, Alain Badiou and Ernesto Laclau. After an overview of current trends in social post-foundationalism and a genealogical chapter on the historical emergence of the difference between the concepts of 'politics' and 'the political', the work of individual theorists is presented and discussed at length. Individual chapters are presented

Whether inscribed within the context of capitalist or neoliberal logic and its imperative to "enjoy," as a critique of all forms of heteronormativity, a liberating force in a positive reading of biopolitics, the point of inflection in the ethics of psychoanalysis, or articulated in the knot of the sinthome, the concept of jouissance is either the diagnosis, response, or solution for a wide range of contemporary discontents. Why does jouissance occupy such a central place in contemporary psychoanalytic discourse? What is jouissance the name for? Originally published in Spanish in 1990, later expanded and translated into French and Portuguese, with multiple reprints in all three languages, this book addresses both theoretical and clinical applications of jouissance through a comprehensive overview of key terms in Lacan's grammar. Néstor A. Braunstein also examines it in relation to central debates within the fields of psychoanalysis, philosophy, queer theory, and literary studies to further explore the implications of Lacan's concept for contemporary thought.
