About the possible relationship between the scoundrel and the psychopath.

ABSTRACT:

We aim to demonstrate how the scoundrel position, such as it was conceived by Lacan and Jacques Alain Miller, can be a key of comprehension to the psychopathic phenomenon. As we approximate the scoundrel to the psychopath, it is possible to extract theoretical guidance and mainly clinical, once it touches directly in the lacanian direction of denying the psychoanalysis to the scoundrel and also the reasons that led him to that conclusion.

Keywords:
scoundrel; psychopath; diagnoses; treatment
