BIRMAN, Joel. Perverse pact and biopolitics. []. , 21, 2, pp.381-396. ISSN 0103-5665.

The aim of this paper is to outline the historical constitution of the perversion field, in both theoretical and clinics levels, since the beginning of the XIX century, and its relationship with the constitution of a biopolitical speech and the nuclear family. In order to achieve this, the paper intends to inscribe the historical emergency of the perverse experience in the juncture between the new social power attributed to motherhood and the prominent place taken by children in modern society's social imaginary field.
