Abstract

GONDAR, Jô. Ferenczi como pensador políticoFerenczi as a political thinker. Cad. psicanal. [online]. 2012, vol.34, n.27, pp. 193-210. ISSN 1413-6295.

This paper tries to extract the political dimension from Ferenczi's texts, extending the notions of trauma and denial to the social field. It links denial to the idea of denied recognition stating congruencies and discrepancies between Ferenczi's ideas and those of some contemporary theorists like Axel Honneth and Judith Butle. By providing a political dimension to clinical horizontality, it discusses a new kind of social bond built upon the recognition of vulnerability.

Keywords : Trauma; denial; recognition; vulnerability; social link.
