Beskrivelse

NORMATIVE PSYCHOANALYSIS is both a critique of Sigmund Freud's cultural concept of psychoanalysis, and Freud's theory of the Oedipus Complex. Many young parents believe that psychoanalysis had contributed to the liberation of the child; they think it to be a form of permissiveness, or a variant of permissive education. Pierre F. Walter shows that nothing could be farther from the truth. Freudian psychoanalysis, applied to children, is not permissive, it is castrative; in addition, it is normative, and actually a tool for forging the ideal consumer child within a consumer culture that is based on the economic paradigm of total consumption. While psychoanalysis stresses the autoerotic sexuality of the child and their need to masturbate, the author dares to ask the provocative question if we are set in the world to become briliant masturbators, or if we are rather bound to learn copulating as a form of social interaction with others? Today, we have to make a clear choice, as parents, educators or psychologists, the choice namely if we want to follow the bioenergetic truth of children's emotional and sexual response, or the mythic projections of a 'cultural' conditioning system called psychoanalysis that was set in the world to veil the essential, that is, the fact that fully erotic children are bad consumers, and thus by definition bad citizens in a society that is based not upon love but upon co-dependence, not upon free choice relations for children, but upon emotional manipulation and abuse of children, a society that confuses sex with violence, while violence is exactly the repression of sexual communication, because sex is but that, a very enjoyable form of nonverbal social communication for all ages
