VENTURA, Rodrigo. The paradoxes of the concept of resistance: from the same to the difference. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2009, n.32, pp. 153-162. ISSN 0100-3437.

The main objective of the present article is to question the resistance concept in Freud’s speech. By the articulation with Michel Foucault’s philosophical work, the hypothesis of this article points to the possibility of thinking the resistance in itself implicated in the subjective change, in other words, in the production of the new and the difference.

Keywords : Resistance; Difference; Instintual conflict; Compulsion to repeat.
