Abstract

MENDES, Elzilaine Domingues  and  PARAVIDINI, João Luiz Leitão. The significant of the psychoanalytical listening in contemporary clinic. Psyche (Sao Paulo) [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.20, pp. 99-116. ISSN 1415-1138.

The objective of this work is to traverse some significants that allow us to demarcate the transformation of psychoanalytical listening within the contemporary clinic, such as the family and its multiple reconfigurations, the market economy and the globalization process with its technological and scientific advances; the emphasis in social relationships supported by consuming, individualism and the importance that the “beautiful and rejuvenated” body acquired in our civilization. Since these social historical, economical and familiar changes are articulated to the current transformations of the subjectivation processes, we believe that the psychoanalytical practice makes possible the investigation and understanding of what is common to pathologies such as panic syndrome, depressions, psychosomatic diseases, compulsions and school failure and, finally, the paradoxes of the contemporary society, thus constituting critical ways of (re)significations.

Keywords : Psychoanalysis; Contemporary age; Subjectivity; Body; Clinical formations.
