Abstract

What is the reception of native peoples by the psi area (Freudian/Lacanian/ Jungian) in the last two and a half decades? The mainstream of Freudian psychoanalysis continues to revere S. Freud of Totem and Taboo; C. Dunker embraces Amerindian perspectivism to serve J. Lacan; The Jungians, celebrating Amerindian perspectivism, maintain hope in a somewhat extemporaneous idea of nation. Against the current of this white narcissism that is nonetheless ethnocidal, the article makes use of the lens of the ontological turn, of ontological conflicts and frictions, of permanent misunderstandings and individuations.
