A series of themes? I have a few themes that I will only abbreviate here.</div><div><br></div><div>0) Is there a confirmation that the functioning of the title of psychoanalyst is not governed by state law ––– but the title of psychotherapy is? And that the latter is only relevant to those</div><div>that claim to offer a service and diagnose people? And that analysis, as it does neither (or at least should not), does not fall under its jurisdiction? Taking this as settled, I propose the following </div><div>themes get beyond this initial discussion.</div><div><br></div><div>1) How to organize an economy of analysis not based on services and goods (doing good for people), but truth and desire? What is a libidinal economy?</div><div><br></div><div>2) Why, how, is the division of work in an analytic association set up according to the transfer? (not academic, professional, or juridical measures) Why is the analytic transfer not the therapeutic transfer (onto a person)?</div><div>How can there be an analytic transfer without any analysis? How can one confirm that analysis is taking place despite the personal analytic transfer? How do the preliminary meetings work?</div><div><br></div><div>3)The organization of the School/Clinic: why does the dominant liberal organization of psychoanalytic institutes, where personal analysis = talking cure, and formation = school of reading/writing, not work? What is Lacan’s</div><div>critique of a certain liberal organization of psychoanalysis? (see <i>Analysis and its Teaching,</i> <i>The Situation of Analysis</i>, and <i>The Freudian Thing</i>). Are psychoanalytic schools simply the production of good listeners? What is the avoidance of writing in the private session?</div><div><br></div><div>4) The analyst as effect: the mistake of trying to be an analyst. Do analysts risk crazy in confusing it with psychotherapy? What is the real reason for high-premium insurance for psychotherapists in the U.S.? Is there a psychotherapeutic fear of analysis? Why is it important to include psychoanalysis in its own clinic of perversion, neurosis, psychosis? How to set up an association so that its conditions promote the act and transmission of analysis, not analysts and their patients? What is it to establish a libidinal economy of analysis?
