Remittances, development and financialisation beyond the Global North.

In the context of the global financial crisis and the crunch in development financing, remittances have become linked to the financial inclusion agenda in what has been termed as 'financialization of remittances' (FOR). This special issue brings together seven articles that analyze the socioculturally specific histories and the everyday manifestations of the FOR in the Caribbean, Central America, Colombia, Ghana, Mexico, Nepal and Senegal. The contributors engage in a transdisciplinary conversation, mobilizing insights from feminist, postcolonial, poststructural and political geography theories. They propose two majors shifts for financialisation analysis: towards an investigation beyond the global North and towards taking seriously failures, contradictions and contestations of financialisation processes. By doing so, the special issue contributes to financialization research in five major ways: to expose colonial legacies of remittances and their financialization; to challenge the supposedly neutral character of the FOR by revealing the caste, gendered and racialized power relations in financialization processes; to destabilizes the notion of the universal individual financial subject and show how multiple financial subjectivities are constituted in constellations; to document the complexities, ambiguities, contradictions and failures of financialization processes and the (everyday) contestations they face; and to show how remittances and their financialization are implicated in reconfiguring authorities, citizenship and social dynamics. The contributions propose relational understandings of financialization that conceptualize the co-constitution of economic, political and sociocultural dimensions of financialization across and beyond the North-South divide.

Toward an Ethical Reflective Practice of a Theory in the Flesh: Embodied Subjectivities in a Youth Participatory Action Research Mural Project.

The focus of this paper is to demonstrate how embodied subjectivities shape research experiences. Through an autoethnography of my involvement in a Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) after-school program with low-income and working-class youth of Color from predominantly Latinx communities I examined my embodied subjectivities, via an ethical reflective practice, as these surfaced in the research context. Autoethnography is presented as a tool to facilitate an ethical reflective practice that aligns with heart-centered work. Drawing from an epistemology of a theory in the flesh (Anzaldúa & Moraga, 1981), embodied subjectivities are defined by the lived experiences felt and expressed through the body, identities, and positionalities of the researcher. The article concludes with implications for the development of community psychology competencies that attend to the researcher's embodied subjectivities.

Recovery From Heart Attack, Biomedicalization, and the Production of a Contingent Health Citizenship.

In this article, I explore the experience of recovery from a heart attack through an analytic autoethnography. I discuss the tensions inherent in biomedical subjectivities of health and ill-health during cardiac recovery through three key themes: (a) the transfer of responsibility and becoming a subject "at risk," (b) technologies of biomedicine and the disciplining of subjectivities, and (c) the transformation of a body toward a new pharmaceuticalized bodily normal. Through an analysis driven by the biomedicalization thesis of Clarke, alongside work on biopower and the governmentality of health by Foucault, Rose, and Rabinow, I seek to provide new insights into the process of cardiac recovery and the relationship between individual experience and broader socio-political processes. Key to this analysis is a focus on the contingent subjectivities brought into being through biomedicalization that constitute a new form of health citizenship that is otherwise not accounted for in narratives of recovery.

Making the middle classes on shifting ground? Residential status, performativity and middle-class subjectivities in contemporary London.

This paper argues that shifts in access to housing - both in relation to rental and ownership - disrupt middle-class reproduction in ways that fundamentally influence class formation. While property ownership has had a long association with middle-class identities, status and distinction, an increasingly competitive rental market alongside inflated property prices has impacted on expectations and anxieties over housing futures. In this paper, we consider two key questions: (1) What happens to middle-class identities under the conditions of this wider structural change? (2) How do the middle classes variously manoeuvre within this? Drawing on empirical research conducted in London, we demonstrate that becoming an owner-occupier may be fractured along lines of class but also along the axes of age, wealth and timing, particularly as this relates to the housing market. It builds on understandings of residential status and place as central to the formation of class, orienting this around the recognition of both people and place as mutable, emphasizing that changing economic and social processes generate new class positionalities and strategies for class reproduction. We argue that these processes are writ large in practices of belonging and claims to place, with wider repercussions within the urban landscape.

Biomedical subjectivities and reproductive assumptions in the CAMELIA clinical trial in Cambodia.

The inclusion of women in clinical trials has raised a variety of ethical and practical issues in their implementation. In the recent CAMELIA clinical trial in Cambodia, the inclusion criteria included a negative pregnancy test and signature of the consent form confirming commitment to double contraceptive use as patients were given drugs contra-indicated in case of pregnancy. But despite precautions and the requirement stated in the informed consent form, 19 out of 236 enrolled women became pregnant during the trial. The current paper describes the frictions and subjectivities that emerge as new medical technologies travel to resource-poor settings--and more specifically, how trial researchers, health workers, and research subjects involved in the CAMELIA trial negotiate the injunction to avoid pregnancy while using a teratogenic drug.

My Path to Recovery From Gender-Based Violence: Elusive, Victimized, or Agentive Position.

This article analyzes 10 autobiographical narratives of women who had experienced intimate relationship violence. In these narratives, we find several positions, that come from master narratives. These positions have some effects on the construction of subjectivities and on the process of recovery or redefinition of identity. The positions are (a) elusive, (b) victimized, and (c) agentive. The purpose of this article is to describe and analyze, from a feminist perspective, the position and subjectivity of women who suffer violence to address the prevention and treatment of this problem that affects individuals and society.

Articulating Interesting Subject Positions for People with Dementia: On Hanging Out in Dutch Nursing Homes.

In this article, drawing on ethnographic research on everyday life and care for people with dementia in Dutch residential care, I argue that researchers who work with people with dementia can contribute to the enactment of "interesting subject positions," thereby enriching the ways in which life with the condition is understood. The crux, I propose, is to use "hanging out" as a method and to ask "interesting questions," an approach that enables participants to let researchers know what matters to them. Researchers, in turn, are enabled to "say more" about dementia, and to bring to light interesting subject positions.

'Care-ful' boundary negotiation: Curating translocal subjectivities among Japanese women in London.

This paper explores the everyday experience of Japanese female migrants in London. Asking how culture can offer us a lens through which to understand the diversity and heterogeneity of care in this globalised world, the Japanese concept of omoiyari, as curation of landscapes of care, is used as an analytical lens to unpack the interplay between culture, care and identity, illuminating the boundary-drawing aspects of ethics of care with which people make ongoing distinctions between self and others, and constructing translocal subjectivities. Understanding care as a form of communication, this paper uncovers the contextual and relational formation of care and self, and how this is enabled as well as constrained by culture. It contributes to an understanding of the relational formation of care in which caring practice is neither static nor embedded in place and culture, but is rather shaped through relationships dynamically, while social relationships in turn also shape the meaning of care.

Trans-Subjectivities: The Analyst's Attempts to Classify and Their Effects on Countertransference.

The author focuses on trans-identities within the broader field of trans-subjectivities while arguing that subjectivity should be considered within the conceptual framework of a heterogeneous and plural subject. The analyst's eagerness to classify gender and sex or typify pathology in a Manichean manner is an inevitable consequence of binary thought. This provokes undesired countertransference effects and creates obstacles to listening in the analytic session. The following contribution reexamines several notions to offer a renewed perspective on the concept of the subject, the Oedipus complex, the desire for a child, the categories of difference and diversity, and the blind spots of binary logic, among others. This reconsideration may in turn elucidate our comprehension of gender and sexual diversities. In this context, the author stresses the need to approach trans-identities and trans-subjectivities with a nonbinary logic based on a rhizomatous way of thinking.

Making legitimacy: Drug user representation in United Nations drug policy settings.

BACKGROUND: The importance of engaging people who use drugs in drug policy development is increasingly acknowledged including in recent UN documents. Little scholarly attention has been paid to 'drug user representation' in the global drug policy setting of the UN such as the Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND). This paper examines 'drug user representation' in key UN drug policy processes over three decades. METHOD: A mapping process was undertaken using a corpus of publicly available documents from the UNGASS on Drugs and associated CND processes to identify relevant policy processes from 1987 to 2019 (n = 15) which were then assess for presence/absence of 'drug user representation'. Those processes with positive evidence of 'drug user representation' (n = 9) were critically interrogated across three co-constitutive domains of the subjects, objects and forms of 'drug user representation'. RESULTS: Our analysis shows that despite calls for greater involvement, dominant UN drug policy discourses and other practices delimit both the political subjectivities available to people who use/have used drugs and their capacity to bring their voices to bear in this context. The analysis also highlights that human rights-based discourses, employed by 'drug user representatives', have emerged as an important practice of resistance against the problematic and delimiting power effects of existing UN discourses, governing practices and modes of engagement. CONCLUSIONS: In addition to the practices of resistance being undertaken by 'drug user representatives', we suggest there is a need to improve how 'drug user representation' is being made possible and done in the sites of UN drug policy deliberation and, that these sites should be opened for questioning. This we argue will not only have a positive impact on political legitimacy for 'drug user representation', but on the health and human rights of people who use/have used drugs.

Hacia una comprensión psicosocial de la configuración de las subjetividades / Towards a psychosocial understanding of the configuration of subjectivities

El propósito de este trabajo es presentar y fundamentar la propuesta teórico-analítica denomi-nada comprensión psicosocial de la configuración de las subjetividades, desde un posiciona-miento epistemológico complejo, relacional, situado socio-históricamente, intersubjetivo y simbólico. En ese marco, se postula como alternativa a las visiones deterministas y esencialis-tas que han caracterizado las producciones teóricas en este campo. Dicha propuesta que debe considerarse provisoria y abierta a revisiones posteriores está inspirada en la perspectiva histó-rico-cultural de Fernando González Rey. En primer término, se analiza la problemática relación individuo-sociedad y los reduccionismos derivados de su consideración como polos antinómicos. En un segundo momento, se avanza en algunas precisiones acerca de la comprensión psicosocial de las subjetividades, particularmente la potencia del concepto “configuración” como operador epistémico. Finalmente se ofrece un esquema conceptual que articula dimensiones y categorías analíticas planteadas y se reflexiona acerca de las proyecciones ético-políticas de esta discusión. (AU)

The purpose of this paper is to present and base the theoretical-analytical proposal called psychosocial understanding of the configuration of subjectivities, from a complex, relational, socio-historically situated, intersubjective and symbolic epistemological position. In this framework, it is postulated as an alternative to the deterministic and essentialist views that have characterized the theoretical productions in this field. This proposal, which should be considered provisional and open to later revisions, is inspired by the historical-cultural per-spective of Fernando González Rey. First, the problematic individual-society relationship and the reductionisms derived from their consideration as antinomic poles are analyzed. In a sec-ond moment, some details about the psychosocial understanding of subjectivities are ad-vanced, particularly the power of the concept “configuration” as an epistemic operator. Final-ly, a conceptual scheme is offered that articulates the proposed analytical dimensions and categories and reflects on the ethical-political projections of this discussion. (AU)

Cartografias em confluências: afetividades emergentes do encontro com a loucura em conflito com a lei / Cartographies in confluences: emerging affectivities from the encounter with madness in conflict with the law

Resumo Pesquisas qualitativas, especificamente etnográficas, trazem desafios para o sistema de revisão ética vigente no Brasil. Nesses estudos, é da relação imbricada com a prática que se constrói a teoria. Ademais, não se trata de pesquisas feitas em, e sim com pessoas e/ou grupos sociais, construídas por meio de uma relação intersubjetiva e também afetiva. Para refletir sobre ética, poder, subjetividades e afetividades, parto do estudo de um caso, a pesquisa que desenvolvo há mais de uma década sobre a loucura em conflito com a lei. A obtenção do consentimento livre e esclarecido, a manutenção (ou não) do anonimato, a preservação da imagem das/dos participantes, a realização de pagamento pela participação na pesquisa, a devolução dos resultados e a avaliação de riscos e benefícios são algumas das reflexões que perpassam este estudo. Fazer etnografia significa implicar-se em outra realidade, afetar e ser afetado por outrem. Reconhecer essa reflexividade consiste em expandir o que se entende por ética e (re)politizar seu uso. Trata-se de evocar um sentido amplo de ética em pesquisa, que abarca uma outra sensibilidade científica e também política.

Abstract Qualitative research, specifically ethnographic research, brings challenges to the current ethical review system in Brazil. In these studies, theory is constructed from the intertwined relationship with practice. Moreover, it is not research carried out in, but with people and/or social groups, built from an intersubjective and also affective relationship. To reflect on ethics, power, subjectivities, and affectivities, I start out from a case study, the research that I have been developing for more than a decade on madness in conflict with the law. Obtaining informed consent, maintaining (or not) anonymity, preserving the image of the participants, paying for participation in the research, returning the results, and evaluating risks and benefits are some of the reflections that permeate this study. Doing an ethnography means getting involved in another reality, affecting and being affected by others. Recognizing this reflexivity means expanding what is understood by ethics and (re)politicizing its use. It is about evoking a broad sense of ethics in research, which encompasses a different scientific and also political sensibility.

Assembling Justice: Reviving Nonhuman Subjectivities to Examine Institutional Betrayal Around Sexual Misconduct.

While some colleges have adopted bystander intervention and restorative justice practices to address sexual misconduct as a community issue, psychoanalytic institutes facing crises of sexual misconduct have typically relied on the tried-and-true tactic of identifying the neoliberal individual as the sole site of trouble. Successful strategies used in colleges can be applied to the psychoanalytic setting by focusing on institutional betrayal. This systemic, community-based approach decenters not only individual bodies but human subjectivities. Here institutions become not just containers for group or networked affect, as if affect itself emanates from individuals into an institution. Agency and affect emerge through networks, not individual bodies, and institutions are active agents in violent betrayal. Acknowledging the ways the nonhuman and the human co-emerge creates the space to hold the vitalities and agencies of both, including multiple potentialities for (re)traumatization, resistance, and transformation.

Suicídio como sintoma social: um estudo sobre os impactos do capitalismo nas subjetividades / Suicide as a social symptom: a study on the impacts of capitalism on subjectivities / El suicidio como síntoma social: un estudio sobre los impactos delcapitalismo enlas subjetividades

O suicídio é um fenômeno multifatorial, considerado um grave problema de saúde pública que atinge, em média, cerca de 700 mil pessoas todos os anos. Diante disso, este artigo tem por objetivo analisar este fenômeno e sua relação com o capitalismo, tendo como base a determinação social da saúde e o cenário individualista deste modelo de sociedade que podem ser causadores da morte autoprovocada. Com isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica que evidenciou a precarização da vida na realidade brasileira e o sofrimento social envolto à população marginalizada, mediado pelas desigualdades do sistema capitalista, dentre elas o desemprego, precarização do trabalho, racismo, sexismo, lgbtfobia e a pobreza como alguns dos elementos envolvidos no suicídio. Verificou-se a importância de considerar os atravessamentos sociais, políticos, econômicos, históricos e culturais no debate sobre a morte voluntária e na promoção e valorização da vida, contrapondo uma visão individualista e reducionista do fenômeno. (AU)

El suicidio es un fenómeno multifactorial, considerado un grave problema de salud pública que afecta, en promedio, a alrededor de 700,000 personas cada año. Ante esto, este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar este fenómeno y su relación con el capitalismo, basándose en la determinación social de la salud y en el escenario individualista de este modelo de sociedad, que pueden ser causantes de la muerte autoprovocada. Con esto, se realizó una investigación bibliográfica que evidenció la precarización de la vida en la realidad brasileña y el sufrimiento social que rodea a la población marginada, mediado por las desigualdades del sistema capitalista, entre las que se encuentran el desempleo, la precarización del trabajo, el racismo, el sexismo, la lgbtfobia y la pobreza como algunos de los elementos del suicidio. Se destacó la importancia de considerar los cruces sociales, políticos, económicos, históricos y culturales en el debate sobre la muerte voluntaria y en la promoción y valoración de la vida, oponiéndose a una visión individualista y reduccionista del fenómeno. (AU)

Suicide is a multifactorial phenomenon, considered a serious public health problem that affects, on average, about 700 thousand people per year. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the phenomenon of suicide and its relationship with capitalism, based on the social determination of the health and the individualistic scenario of this model of society that can be the cause of self-mutilation. With that, a bibliographical research was carried out that evidenced the precariousness of life in the Brazilian reality and the social suffering that surrounds the marginalized population, mediated by the inequalities of the capitalist system, including unemployment, precariousness of employment, racism, sexism, LGBTphobia and poverty as some of the elements involvedin suicide. It was found important to consider the social, political, economic, historical and cultural intersections in the debate on voluntary death and in the promotion and appreciation of life, in opposition to an individualistic and reductionist viewof the phenomenon.

Espiritualidad femenina y modernización reflexiva en círculos de mujeres

RE S U M E N Este artículo es el resultado de una investigación cuyos objetivos fueron identificar y analizar los usos y sentidos del concepto de "espiritualidad" en tres círculos de mujeres de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Para ello se empleó una metodología cualitativa basada principalmente en observaciones etnográficas de los encuentros mensuales que realizan estos círculos, así como en entrevistas semi-estructuradas a dieciséis mujeres que participan de ellos. Los resultados muestran que los usos y significados que estas personas otorgan a la espiritualidad se relacionan con la búsqueda de referentes distintos a los del patriarcado o del judeocristianismo, así como a un proceso de autoconocimiento, al contacto con un "yo sagrado" y a la revisión continua de las actitudes y los pensamientos. Se concluye entonces que la "espiritualidad femenina" es un concepto complejo a través del cual se pretende orientar de una manera novedosa las subjetividades de las participantes. Sin embargo, al hacer énfasis en la autonomía y la sacralización de la mujer dicho concepto es una manifestación de los procesos de individualización y reflexividad propios de la modernidad tardía.

This article is the result of an investigation whose main objectives are to identify and analyze the uses and meanings of the concept of "spirituality" in three women's circles in the city of Medellín. In order to achieve this, a qualitative methodology was used, based mainly on ethnographic observations of the monthly meetings held by these circles, as well as semi-structured interviews with sixteen women who participate in them. The results show that the uses and meanings that these persons give to spirituality are related to the search for referents other than those of patriarchy or Judeo-Christianity as well as a quest of self-knowledge, contact with a "sacred self" and the review of attitudes and thoughts. It is concluded that "feminine spirituality" is a complex concept intended to guide the subjectivities of the participants in a new way However; by emphasizing the autonomy and sacralization of women, this concept is a manifestation of the processes of individualization and reflexivity typical of late modernity

Para isso, foi utilizada uma metodologia qualitativa, baseada principalmente em observações etnográficas das reuniões mensais realizadas por esses círculos, bem como entrevistas semiestruturadas com dezesseis mulheres que deles participam. Os resultados mostram que os usos e significados que essas pessoas atribuem à espiritualidade estão relacionados à busca de outros referentes que não sejam os do patriarcado ou judaico-cristianismo, bem como um processo de autoconhecimento, contato com um "eu sagrado" e a revisão de atitudes e pensamentos. Conclui-se então que a "espiritualidade feminina" é um conceito complexo por meio do qual se pretende orientar as subjetividades das participantes de uma nova forma. No entanto, ao enfatizar a autonomia e a sacralização da mulher, esse conceito é uma manifestação dos processos de individualização e reflexividade típicos da modernidade tardia.

As subjetividades periféricas e os impasses para a descolonização da clínica psicológica / Peripheral subjectivities and the challenges for decolonizing psychological clinic / Las subjetividades periféricas y los obstáculos a la descolonización de la clínica psicológica

Pode a clínica psicológica escutar as subjetividades periféricas? A partir dessa problematização, o presente estudo teórico se propõe a pensar a relação entre clínicas psicológicas e subjetividades periféricas, aquelas vidas que estão afastadas dos diversos centros: políticos, sociais, econômicos, étnico-raciais, de gênero e sexualidades etc. Marcadas por relações de exclusão, opressões e precarizações, as subjetividades periféricas são vistas como produtos de processos de colonização que se atualizam em estratégias mais sofisticadas, investindo além do corpo biológico e alcançando os processos de subjetivação em suas múltiplas faces. Ao mesmo tempo, também são vistas como sujeitas, cujos processos de dessubjetivação dessa produção de território existencial terrificante expressam linhas de resistência crítica e inventiva que contornam um espaço fora do centro não como lugar de sujeição, mas de politização do corpo e afirmação da vida. O estudo aponta para a irrupção da fixidez teórico-metodológica e aposta na invenção de uma clínica que pensa a partir de onde os pés pisam, e da experimentação dos contextos e das vidas que se propõe cuidar, produzindo uma dupla tarefa de descolonização: da psicologia clínica ainda carregada de discursos e práticas colonizantes e das subjetividades que são produtoras e produtos de processos de opressão e exclusão.(AU)

Can psychological clinic listen to peripheral subjectivities? From this problematic, this theoretical study reflects on the relationship between psychological clinics and peripheral subjectivities-lives that are removed from the various centers: political, social, economic, racial-ethnic, gender and sexualities, etc. Marked by exclusion, oppression, and precariousness, peripheral subjectivities are seen as products of colonization processes that are reiterated by more sophisticated strategies, going beyond the biological body and reaching the subjectivation processes in its multiple facets. Simultaneously, they are seen as subjects, whose desubjectivation processes of this terrifying existential territory production express critical and inventive resistances that outline a peri-space not as a place of subjection, but of politicization of the body and affirmation of life. The study argues in favor of dismantling theoretical-methodological fixity and inventing a clinic rooted on experimentation of the contexts and lives it proposes to care for, engendering a double decolonization: of clinical psychology still laden with colonizing discourses and practices and of subjectivities that produce and are products of oppression and exclusion.(AU)

¿Puede la clínica psicológica escuchar las subjetividades periféricas? Desde esta problematización, este estudio se propone pensar la relación entre clínicas psicológicas y subjetividades periféricas, aquellas vidas que están apartadas de todos los centros: políticos, sociales, económicos, étnico-raciales, de género y sexualidades, etc. Marcadas por relaciones de exclusión, opresiones, precarizaciones, estas subjetividades periféricas son producto de los procesos de colonización que se actualizan en estrategias más sofisticadas que, más allá del cuerpo biológico, invisten en los procesos de subjetivación y sus múltiplos rostros. Al mismo tiempo, son agentes cuyos procesos de subjetivación de esta producción de territorio existencial petrificante exprimen líneas de resistencia crítica e inventiva que contornan el margen del centro no como espacio de sujeción, sino como espacio de politización del cuerpo y afirmación de la vida. El estudio realizado apunta a la necesidad de ruptura con los aportes teórico-metodológicos rígidos y apuesta en la invención de una clínica que piensa desde su fundamentación, y de la experimentación de los contextos y vidas que buscan cuidar, lo que produce una doble tarea de descolonización: de la psicología clínica aún marcada por las prácticas de colonialidad y de las subjetividades que son productoras y producto de los procesos de opresión y exclusión.(AU)

Linguagem, poder, gênero e subjetividades na interface com teorias feministas / Lenguage, power, gender and subjectivities in interface with feminist theories / Lenguaje, poder, género y subjetividades en la interfaz con las teorías feministas

Este ensaio reflete sobre como as noções de linguagem, poder, gênero e subjetividades, dialogam entre si, tomando como base epistemológica para este debate, a perspectiva teórica feminista pós-estrutural (Haraway, 1995; Scott, 2002), em sua inflexão com as propostas feministas negra (Gonzaléz, 2018); e descolonial (Lugones, 2014; Rivera Cusicanchi, 2010). Discutiremos a partir de duas cenas que atuam enquanto "eventos discursivos" (Beaugrande, 1997). O primeiro trata de uma evocação, em um encontro entre uma das pesquisadoras e uma criança, ao sistema-sexo/gênero e às ciladas discursivas que atravessam corpos e subjetividades. A segunda, descreve o encontro entre duas jovens mulheres brancas de classe média, sobre questões de aborto provocado, desnudando tensões entre igualdade e diferença e o campo dos direitos reprodutivos. Nas duas cenas as provocações se estabelecem, trazendo a centralidade da linguagem e do poder em relação com questões de raça, classe e gênero para as construções subjetivas.

This essay reflects on how the notions of language, power, gender and subjectivities dialogue with each other, taking as an epistemological basis for this debate the post-structural feminist theoretical perspective (Haraway, 1995; Scott, 2002), in its inflection with the black feminist (Gonzalés, 2018); and decolonial (Lugones, 2014; Rivera Cusicanchi, 2010) proposals. We will discuss from two scenes that act as "discursive events" (Beaugrande, 1997). The first deals with an evocation, in a meeting between one of the researchers and a child, about the sex/gender system and the discursive pitfalls that cross bodies and subjectivities. The second describes the encounter between two young white middle class women on issues of induced abortion, laying bare tensions between equality and difference and the field of reproductive rights. In both scenes, provocations are established, bringing the centrality of language and power in relation to issues of race, class and gender to the subjective constructions.

Este ensayo reflexiona sobre cómo las nociones de lenguaje, poder, género y subjetividades dialogan entre sí, tomando como base epistemológica para este debate, la perspectiva teórica feminista post-estructural (Haraway, 1995; Scott, 2002), en su inflexión con las propuestas feministas negras (Gonzalés, 2018); y descolonial (Lugones, 2014; Rivera Cusicanchi, 2010). Discutiremos desde dos escenas que actúan como "eventos discursivos" (Beaugrande, 1997). El primero trata de una evocación, en una reunión entre una de las investigadoras y un niño, sobre el sistema sexo-género y las trampas discursivas que cruzan cuerpos y subjetividades. El segundo describe el encuentro entre dos jóvenes mujeres blancas de la clase media, en torno a temas de aborto inducido, exponiendo tensiones entre igualdad y diferencia, y el campo de los derechos reproductivos. En ambas escenas, las provocaciones se establecen, llevando a las construcciones subjetivas la centralidade del lenguaje y el poder em relación a los problemas de raza, clase y género.

Processos de subjetivação em arte e saúde mental em um manicômio judiciário / Subjectivation processes in art and mental health in a judiciary asylum / Procesos de subjetivación en el arte y salud mental en un manicomio judicial

Este artigo é um recorte de uma pesquisa-intervenção realizada em um Hospital de Custódia e Tratamento Psiquiátrico (HCTP). Por meio da cartografia, como método e modo de fazer pesquisa qualitativa em psicologia, e da utilização de objetos relacionais da arte em rodas de conversa, tenda do conto e círculos de cultura para a produção dos dados com "pacientes", agentes penitenciários e técnicos, objetivou-se: a) cartografar processos de subjetivação em arte e saúde mental de pacientes no cotidiano do HCTP; b) mapear a produção de subjetividades custodiadas e seus efeitos nos modos de subjetivação de pacientes; c) analisar modos de sujeição e resistência frente à produção de subjetividades custodiadas. A análise cartográfica dos dados mostra que há, nos processos de subjetivação dos "pacientes": a) problematização dos modos de sujeição às instituições que agenciam a produção de subjetividades custodiadas, principalmente do poder médico que decide quem está, ou não, apto para a vida em "liberdade"; b) modos de resistência à produção de subjetividades custodiadas, principalmente à excessiva medicalização e às grandes limitações na produção em saúde que atingem o HCTP. As conclusões apontam a arte como dispositivo, principalmente, e a poesia como objeto relacional com o fora da clausura para anunciar que o HCTP é visto pelos "pacientes", pelos agentes penitenciários e (passa a ser visto) também pelos cartógrafos como prisão, manicômio judiciário, e não como hospital; sendo cada participante da pesquisa não apenas um preso que utiliza psicotrópicos, mas também sujeito que pode devir autor para testemunhar o fracasso/sucesso da psiquiatrização da loucura.(AU)

This article is part of a broader intervention research conducted at a Custody and Psychiatric Treatment Hospital (HCTP). This study aimed to (a) map the processes of subjectivation in art and mental health in the daily life of patients of the HCTP; (b) to map the production of incarcerated subjectivities and its effects on subjectivation modes; and (c) to analyze subjection and resistance modes as a result of the production of incarcerated subjectivities. Data was collected using cartography and relational art objects in conversation circles and tale tents, based on the narratives of "patients", correctional officers and technicians of the custody unit. According to the cartographic analysis, patients problematize the subjection modes of the institutions responsible for producing their incarcerated subjectivities, especially in regard to the medical power that gets to decide who is apt for life in "freedom". Patients also showed resistance towards producing incarcerated subjectivities, mainly considering the excessive medicalization and major limitations in the healthcare provided by HCTP. The results indicate that "patients", penitentiary agents, and even cartographers perceive the HCTP as a prison (Judicial Asylum) rather than as a hospital. Each participant is not only a prisoner who use psychotropic drugs, but also a subject capable of testifying the failure/success of the psychiatrization of madness.(AU)

Este artículo es parte de una investigación-acción realizada en el Hospital de Custodia y Tratamiento Psiquiátrico (HCTP). Por medio de la cartografía como método y modo de hacer investigación cualitativa en psicología, y de la utilización de objetos relacionales del arte en ruedas de conversación, tienda del cuento y círculos de narrativas de la cultura para la producción de datos con "pacientes", agentes penitenciarios y técnicos del HCTP, se tuvo por objetivo: a) cartografiar los procesos de subjetivación en el arte y en la salud mental de pacientes en el cotidiano del HCTP; b) trazar la producción de subjetividades custodiadas y sus efectos en los modos de subjetivación de pacientes; c) analizar modos de sujeción y resistencia frente a la producción de subjetividades custodiadas. El análisis de la cartografía revela que existe en los procesos de subjetivación de los "pacientes": a) problemática de los modos de sujeción a las instituciones que gerencian la producción de subjetividades custodiadas, sobre todo el poder médico que decide quién está apto o no para vivir en "libertad"; b) formas de resistencia a la producción de subjetividades custodiadas, especialmente la medicalización excesiva y las grandes limitaciones a la producción en salud que afecta el HCTP. Las conclusiones apuntan al arte como dispositivo, principalmente la poesía como objeto relacional con el fuera de la clausura para anunciar que el HCTP es visto por los "pacientes", por los agentes penitenciarios y pasa a ser visto también por los cartógrafos como una prisión, un manicomio judicial, pero no como un hospital, siendo cada participante de la investigación no solo un detenido que utiliza psicotrópicos, sino también un sujeto que puede devenir autor para testimoniar el fracaso/éxito de la psiquiatrización de la locura.(AU)

Guattari and institutional psychotherapy / Guattari e a psicoterapia institucional

RESUMO: O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar em linhas gerais de que maneira a psicose é diagnosticada e tratada pela psicoterapia institucional. Partiremos da tese de doutorado de Tosquelles, na qual a psicose é pensada como fenômeno existencial comparável à experiência de fim de mundo. Trata-se aqui de salientar a importância da compreensão da experiência do doente e de sua elaboração criativa no desenvolvimento do quadro psicótico. Em seguida, analisaremos de que maneira Oury une a teoria de Tosquelles à psicanálise para desenvolver uma clínica multirreferencial e polifônica. No interior desse quadro teórico e prático, buscaremos traçar a inflexão política que Guattari dará à experiência clínica da psicoterapia institucional.

Abstract: The purpose of this article is to outline how psychosis is diagnosed and treated by institutional psychotherapy. We will begin with Tosquelles' doctoral thesis, in which psychosis is thought as an existential phenomenon comparable to the experience of the end of the world. It is important to emphasize the importance of understanding the patient's experience and his creative elaboration in the development of the psychotic picture. Then, we will analyze how Oury unites the theory of Tosquelles to psychoanalysis to develop a multirreferential and polyphonic clinic. Within this theoretical and practical framework we will trace the political inflection that Guattari will attribute to the experience of self-management proposed by institutional psychotherapy.
