“…An event bears an unsettling, traumatic, and almost purely emotional character beyond discourse (Mattera et al, 2012;Parker & Pav on, 2013). There are not enough words to name or interpret this new experience because the event materializes as a catastrophe, a narcissistic cataclysm that tears the symbolic cover of the subject (Laznik et al, 2015;Mascheroni & Scalozub, 2008;Mattera et al, 2012;Rodr ıguez-Rendo, 2013;Orozco & Soria, 2017). Hoffman (2004) describes the event as an irreversible overturn that forces a subject to search for a new meaning because events synthesize into "a castration to which the subject cannot respond; the real that comes in the place and site of the Other, will take care of the answer" (p. 50).…”

In the context of violence and enforced disappearance in Mexico, the concept of mourning is recontextualized from a psychoanalytic perspective. Two themes of the psychoanalytic theory of mourning are considered: 1) the impossibility to confirm the death of the missing person and 2) the availability and purpose of symbolic resources (rites, community activities). The private and public aspects of mourning are reviewed in relation to the afflictions of the relatives of the missing. Without a body to mourn, the rites that are performed around the disappeared have a different function than funeral rites. Nuanced by repetition, these rites attempt to work through the traumatic loss. The role of search groups in working through the pain of loss is also explored. The notions of intrapsychic crypt and endocryptic identification are reviewed, to better understand the encrypted mourning -the particular state of prolonged grief- endured by the relatives of the disappeared.

“…This Lacanian approach to mourning allows us to think of it differently from a process, as a relocation of the subject towards lack, as the possibility to give a name to the lack and reorder one's own world without denying it, while also assuming it as part of oneself. Orozco and Soria (2017) also place mourning as an event, given that loss involves a violent disturbance in the psychic system of the subject, and its incidence brings something that constitutes a decisive, irreversible turnaround in the history of any subject. From the moment of the loss, nothing will be as before, which gives loss its overwhelming character, therefore making socialization essential.…”

Mexico stands out for its unique rites of symbolization of death. Being historically determined by the richness of its pre-Hispanic cultures, and with the fusion of catholic and Mesoamerican rites, Mexicans’ relationship with death is unique. Mourning rites are imbued with a circular worldview of life and death. Some of the basic psychoanalytic components of mourning are present in Mexican mourning rites: symbolic function, cathartic affects, identification, and socialization of signifiers. Nowadays, the massive deaths as a result of violence imposes the encryption of mourning as a perverse demand. The lack of response to the cries for help render useless the symbolic functions of mourning rites, which brings about a new way of socializing the loss, through massive social movements. We inquire, through a psychoanalytic reading of mourning and its socio-historical aspects in Mexico, and by emphasizing the traditions of mourning and its multiple symbolic values, the different ways Mexicans deal with death, in order shed some light into Mexicans’ symbolic responses and relationship with death while facing the perverse challenge of a violent regime.
