BARRETO, Ricardo Azevedo. Psychoanalysis: an institution to be reconstructed. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2011, n.35, pp.103-108. ISSN 0100-3437.
This paper aims discussing about Psychoanalysis as an institution, about its institutional object and the practices that are repeated in the field of psychoanalytical work, which includes the links between the institutional agents of Psychoanalysis, the psychoanalysts, and their clientele, the patients. We emphasize the scope about the theory of psyche, psychological development, psychopathology and psychotherapeutic technique of Psychoanalysis, must be further considered, through the perspective of producing psychoanalytic practices linked to contemporary questions. Thereby the work with the unconscious can be extended concerning the action possibilities of Psychoanalysis.
