dc.description.abstract | The relationship between Law and Psychoanalysis is often a subject of praise in legal
academic debates. So much so that Resolution n. 5, which was edited by the Ministry
of Education in 2018 and prioritized interdisciplinarity and the articulation of knowledge,
established the National Curricular Guidelines of the Undergraduate Law Studies and
included in the academic programs disciplines of the philosophical and humanistic
fields and of the social sciences, among others. Therefore, the main objective of this
research study is to identify the relationship between Law and Psychoanalysis, from
an interdisciplinary perspective, to establish points of connection, in order to enhance
the study of Legal Psychology, and to provoke a discussion that can justify a new
reading of the Brazilian legal education. This is a qualitative research study, carried
out through bibliographical and documentary analysis. Thus, the reflections start with
the definition of the fundamental psychoanalytic concepts created by Sigmund Freud,
the father of Psychoanalysis, such as unconscious, instinct, Oedipus complex and
repression, and a brief history of the construction of psychoanalytic theory. At this
stage, we also present the works Totem and Taboo (1913-1914) and Civilization and its Discontents (1929-1930) by Sigmund Freud, since these works establish a direct connection with the fundamental Freudian psychoanalytic concepts. Afterwards, we
develop the concept of Legal Psychology, a discipline that acquired a unique status
from the application of Resolution n. 5 of the Ministry of Education, by showing its
historical aspect, importance and multiple approaches. Finally, we present a dialogue
between Law and Psychoanalysis and discuss about Law, legislation and justice based
on the psychoanalytic contributions to propaedeutics. In the end, we reinterpret Juridical Psychology in Family Law based on psychoanalysis. In this regard, we conclude that it is possible to establish points of intersection between Law and Psychoanalysis and that the latter has important contributions for Law, promoting the understanding of an integrative view of the subject. | en |
