Ética na psicanálise : Freud, Lacan & Foucault

Abstract

Considering the line of research interdisciplinary ethical problems aimed to the present dissertation the analysis of the relation of Ethics in Psychoanalysis, while pointing out the contributions of psychoanalysis and its clinical implications in two currents of psychoanalytic thinking – Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan and the circumscription of the existing intersection of fields between Ethics and Psychoanalysis through Michel Foucault’s philosophical thought. Through panoramic approach used, through a literature review, using authors as Arendt (1992); Bauman (2016); Birman (2001); Foucault (1984); Freud (1915); Julien (1996); Junqueira (2011); Kehl (2002); Lacan (2008); Roudinesco (2007), demonstrated the differences in the treatments given to the question of Ethics and moral consciousness in Psychoanalysis, and how these differences are present in the establishment of clinical processes in the aforementioned authors. We conclude that the diversity of metapsychological models, existing in Psychoanalysis produces differences in theoretical approach to the issue of Ethics and moral conscience, and also the processes and clinical objectives by the Psychoanalyst. It is well known that different clinical models keep certain symmetry regarding Ethics. Analyzing three intersecting fields between psychoanalysis and ethics: the study of the factors that determine ethical and moral behavior and their psychological consequences; Psychoanalysis as a product of a particular cultural tradition; ethical problems posed by the practice. We finish signaling another link field between Ethics and Psychoanalysis – ethical reasons.
