MUNOZ, Pablo D.. The subject of freedom in psychoanalysis. Anu. investig. [online]. 2013, vol.20, n.2, pp.131-143. ISSN 1851-1686.

This article presents the first steps of the research project UBACyT 2010-2012: "Freedom in psychoanalysis. Its impact on the causality and subject concepts developed on Jacques Lacan work. Clinical and ethical implications" directed by the author. Freedom is not a psychoanalysis concept, nevertheless it is found in certain psychoanalitic conceptualizations in relation with some concepts that delineate peculiar notion of freedom, as distinguished from the philosophical and psychological. While in the works of S. Freud and J. Lacan freedom is not a systematic or permanent subject, in both authors we can take isolated references which, taken together, can be set as a way of conceiving freedom strictly linked to the subject conception that J. Lacan explicitly defined for psychoanalysis.

Keywords : Freedom; Causality; Subjective responsibility.
