ROJAS, Maria Cristina. The psychoanalytical practice today: contiuities and changes. Vínculo [online]. 2004, vol.1, n.1, pp. 1-8. ISSN 1806-2490.

This article situates the Psychoanalysis as a sociohistorical production that is in a constant process of actualization. It suggests that multiple clinic practices, such as the relational dispositives, have the psychoanalytical corpus as their referent. It then makes some considerations on the nowadays pathologies, a situational approach of the clinic and the transformation of settings. The article proposes that Psychoanalysis’ revolutionary power is linked today, among other features, to a conception of the subject and to the thematic of the intersubjective and social prop of the psyche that discuss some basic market ideologies such as individualism and helplessness.

Keywords : Sociohistorical perspective; Complex subject; Intersubjective prop; Situation; Co-constructive clinic.
