This paper deals with issues that involve unconscious phenomena present in culture. These issues affect subjects who are victims of humiliation and social helplessness. The author writes her reflections on the contribution the psychoanalyst may bring by establishing new ways of understanding the phenomena that surround us and by expanding the relationship between Psychoanalysis and world's issues, as well as the limits and, especially, the potency of this relationship. This study is based on a situation related to the process of re-urbanization and the reallocation of people who live in slums in the surrounding areas of Ceagesp. The author discusses the logic behind the current exclusion and prejudice by working with the idea of invisibility, the extreme fear of desubjectivation, and the anguish at the stranger. Arendt's, Gonçalves Filho's, and Debieux's ideas are used as theoretical reference.
Keywords : extensive clinical practice; desubjectivation; social inequality; humiliation; prejudice.
