BEDANI, Ailton    ALBERTINI, Paulo. Politics and sexuality in the trajectory of Reich: Berlim (1930-1933). []. , 61, 2, pp.1-10. ISSN 1809-5267.

This study focuses on the sex-political work undertaken by Wilhelm Reich in Berlin, between 1930 and 1933. Four aspects have been chosen to be exposed here: a) the Reichian project of joining together in a single organization, known as SEXPOL, diverse German groups that discussed issues relating to sexuality; b) the publications of sex-political connotation in which the author and his collaborators focused on themes related to childhood and adolescence; c) Reichian analysis dealing with the social function of sexual repression; d) the studies elaborated by Reich, by the light of Political Sexology, focused on Nazi-Fascism. Three sources of data were consulted: the main sex-political works by Reich published during the period 1930-1933; autobiographical reports and an interview in which the author, in the mature days of his work, reassessed his political participation in Europe; the works by some of the commentators who examined Reich's Freudo-Marxian production.
