Report on the evening of the Action Committee of the School One
by Lucía Blanco

Towards the 8th Congress of the WAP 2012. On Eric Laurent's text "The symbolic order in the 21st century. It is not what it used to be. What consequences for the treatment?

Conversation by Graciela Brodsky and Juan Carlos Indart. Debate: Silvia Baudini, Silvia Tendlarz and Gustavo Stiglitz. Coordinator: Susana Amado.

Graciela Brodsky proposed to work on the diverse and possibly unprecedented ways in which the Other is made exist. Eg.: The return of maternal figures. She highlighted the importance of localising the impossibles, especially that of nomination, in order to lead to a clinic of the unnamable. She recommended reading the Revista Lacaniana No. 10 and an article by Eric Laurent: "The impossible nomination" in the Revue de la Cause Freudienne No. 77.

Juan Carlos Indart proposed to form oneself in the radical binary: Symptom real singular and discourses. And from there, to deal with the different symbolic orders in order to situate our own Babel, for instance: the aftermath of the argentinean crisis of 2001. To work on the pitfalls of the bureaucratic order, the nuances of the current superego, the proliferation of psychoses.To discern that the identification of a mode of jouissance is not the identification to a mode of jouissance. Given that the poetic sense is not enough, a topology must be produced, that of the locus of "there is no one". He recommended reading the book "There is no sexual relation" by Alain Badiou and Barbara Cassin

Silvia Baudini posed schizophrenia as the paradigm of anonymity. A subject without a body, a jouissance that is not hooked onto a semblant. Silvia Tendlarz introduced some poetry. Variations in semblants and that which remains invariable, the position of the analyst as he who disturbs the defense. Gustavo Stiglitz emphasized the praise of the failure of the symbolic. He proposed an anachronistic posture for the analyst, not so immersed in the 'epoch'. To also be aware of possible conservative attitudes and of the fact that we are in a world that tries to get rid of the Real, a world without fecund rest. The "named for" is patrimony of the disembodied social and it is in the embodiment that the voice of the superego finds its limit. If nomination is impossible it is because there is always the Real as limit.
