Abstract

KYRILLOS, Fuad  and  DUNKER, Christian Ingo Lenz. After the holocaust: side effects of colony hospital in Barbacena . Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2017, vol.23, n.3, pp.952-974. ISSN 1677-1168.  https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2017v23n3p952-974.

This research intends to address the remnants of insane asylum practices performed in a large psychiatric hospital and its repetition in the mental health services of Barbacena. In this hospital institution people were involuntarily admitted, without a diagnosis of mental illness, violated and murdered with the complicity of the state. Proceeded to a brief criticalhistorical analysis about it creation, interviews with professionals who work on it and, also, participate on the implementation of public policies on mental health care in the city. Psychoanalysis will be used on this research as a way to tackle the political and social violence in their traumatic effects that continues on these days. The concept of repetition compulsion will assist us in understanding the manifestation of practices and discourses related to asylum culture. Such practices are automated in those professionals who suffer the effects of unconscious passages of history, relegated to forgetfulness, by convenience games not specified.

Keywords : Mental hospital practices; Compulsion to repeate something; Violence; Minas Gerais psychiatry´s development; Mental health.
