Abstract

BACELETE, Larissa  and  RIBEIRO, Paulo de Carvalho. Violence and sexuality: a reflection derived from the psychoanalytic theory. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2016, n.45, pp. 87-100. ISSN 0100-3437.

This paper aims to address the idea that violent behaviors are always crossed by the drive, fully committed to the perverse and disruptive sexuality, which Freud (1905) deals with in his work “Three Contributions to the Sexual Theory”. Questioning the notion that violence is something natural and inherent to human beings, we will examine the freudian texts about war, and his sociological writings that address the issues of malaise and aggressiveness. The notion of power, by Hannah Arendt, will also be essential to develop this critical view on violence, recognizing in this a form of certain groups to maintain social, political, and economic oppression over others. Thus, we believe that the manifestations of hatred and discrimination which currently occur the virtual scenario, on social networks rely on something related to the sexual and traumatic elements of those who practice them. We believe that these points can demonstrate the implications of the unconscious in social relations, in the engagement of individuals in certain groups who identify with the segregation and violent practices.
