Narrativas de percursos formativos em psicanálise nas encruzilhadas interseccionais

Abstract

The psychoanalytical training, since the early history of the psychoanalytic movement, has been crossed by political issues are often reproduced domination and power through the dictates of their institutions. Intersectionality, as an important research and political action tool that promotes dialogues between different fields, emerges in this work to support issues that emerged in the researcher's formative clinical paths, by making visible intersections between axes of subordination of race, gender/sexuality and class that are silenced in the psychoanalytic field and in the social fabric. Considering this, that research aimed to listen how violence based on gender/sexuality, race and class, in their intersectionalities, appear in the unique training paths of analysts in Natal-RN. More specifically, it aimed to analyze how these types of violence in their intersectionalities are heard and managed by analysts in their clinical practices, theoretical studies, supervision and personal analysis, as well as witnessing such violence in meetings with research participants. The research method was guided by theoretical-methodological operators of freudian and ferenczian psychoanalysis, such as transference, mutual analysis, trauma, denial and testimony, in dialogue with the critical perspective of intersectionality. It involved individual listening sessions carried out at two different times with four psychoanalysts who experience or have experienced their clinical practice, their personal analysis, clinical supervision and theoretical studies in Natal-RN, in addition to continuous work of attention and recording of the researcher's affects and memories in a field diary, here called a diary of fragments. The analysis of the experience traversed the paths of research from the emergence of the research questions to the production of a destination for them through the writing of narratives of the unique formative paths, shared with the participants. The process of producing narratives showed that, although critical reflection on intersectional violence is incipient or absent in the training institutions in Natal-RN, the analysts experienced intersectional readings, racialization processes, racial literacy, and the elasticity of the analytical technique in creative and transformative clinic experiences that arise from working with people marked by racism, sexism, poverty, and social segregation, in their intersectionalities. The narrative's constructions gave rise to mutual analysis and testimony at the intersectional crossroads of the research scenes, making the colonial violence that historically silences and erases the stories of black women visible. This experience called for the racialization of transference towards the decolonization of psychoanalysis, as an ethical-political and theoretical-methodological gesture that affirms the inseparability between clinical and political practice in psychoanalysis.
