The Jew, the Woman and the Psychoanalyst: A Model of Non-Segregative Social Bond

Abstract

This article demonstrates how the universal produces segregation. It identifies what is common to the Jew, to the woman and the psychoanalyst from the universal formula defined by Lacan as “all” [tout]. Here the Jew is caught up in the model of analysis of the process of segregation. This article approaches the “not-all” [past-tout], a concept invented by Lacan, which designates the unlimited as a mode of response to segregation. The method chosen here consists of studying the texts by both Freud and Lacan on identification, racism and segregation. Approaching the concept of segregation through the universal and identification means taking into account the reality of the unique and singular jouissance of each subject.
