ROSA, Márcia. "The danger od childhood: a trap to catch adults?. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.1, pp.318-329. ISSN 1677-1168.  https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2018v24n1p318-329.

After presenting Michel Foucault’s formulations in The Anomalies, highlighting the presence of the judicial monster, the small masturbator and the undisciplined child in the genesis of the notion of abnormal, and showing how psychiatry ceases to operate as a therapeutic to exercise a disciplinary function, the author resorts to the psychoanalysis of Freud and Lacan to differentiate the Foucaultian child and the Freudian child, as well as legal accountability and subjective accountability. To mark the points of conjunction and disjunction between Foucault and Psychoanalysis, the article uses a theoretical presentation and discussion of the subject in question. The conclusion is that, having to choose between the two discourses, the author stays with both of them, considering that Foucault is very important for the discussion of the anti-asylum struggle and for a critical reflection on issues related to mental health, whereas psychoanalysis is indispensable as clinic.

Palabras clave : Abnormal; Foucault; Psychoanalysis.
