ATTENTION DIFICIT WITH HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER SYNDROME: A CLINICAL, POLITICAL AND EPISTEMIC VIEW

Abstract

The change of reference organized today by the social environment leads to a body-imbalance; and the school is not excluded from those effects. The ideal of effort was substituted by that of search of happiness favoring playtime as a way of infantilization. The western working crisis needed other ways of social control: the entertaining and the pharmacology. The latter invests in education to generate its own demand. The politic is biopolitical and the subject of wish is conspicuous by his absence in the cognitive-behavioral therapy and in psychiatric clinical. What is at stake in these expressions of the body? Hyperactivity and lack of attention are the specific answers to the hypermodern Master’s effective and production blending demand?. Is it a social symptom? What singular knowledge is at stake that does not allow learning? The Lacanian approach teaches us that it is in the case by case study where the answers will be found, as long as a psychoanalyses is allowed. A clinical case presentation and its resolution.
