In order to accomplish this, Gabriel Tupinambá analyzes the socioeconomic practices that underlie the current institutional existence of the Lacanian community--its political position as well as its institutional history--in relation to theoretical production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy focusing on the underlying dynamic that binds clinical practice, theoretical work, and institutional security in Lacanian psychoanalysis today, Tupinambá is able to locate sites for conceptual innovation that have been ignored by the discipline, such as the understanding of the role of money in clinical practice, the place of analysands in the transformation of psychoanalytic theory, and ideological dead-ends that have become common sense in the Lacanian field. \u003ci\u003eThe Desire of Psychoanalysis\u003c\/i\u003e thus suggests ways of opening up psychoanalysis to new concepts and clinical practices and calls for a transformation of how psychoanalysis is understood as an institution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Northwestern University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47596281135255,"sku":"9780810142817","price":3653.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780810142817.webp?v=1774993168","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-desire-of-psychoanalysis-exercises-in-lacanian-thinking-9780810142817","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
