The perverse and the law

Abstract

This work is the result of reflections on bibliographical studies about the structure perverse and its consequent relationship with the Law. Many studies have been done about the constitution of the superego in neuroses, however, when it comes to other structure (perversion and psychosis), this third instance delineation, formulated by Freud from the second topic, it is often insufficient in Freud. Thus, the main objective of this work is to explore the path trodden by Freud, considering the important contributions of Lacan and others, with regard to the constitution of the superego in perversions, trying to establish relationships between law, desire and enjoyment in sustaining fantasy in the perverse. In order for that be implemented, it was necessary to make a brief analysis of the design concept of the superego as the heir of the oedipus complex and internalization of the law to subsequently analyze its manifestation in perversion.
