The aim of this paper is to advance the theoretical displacement of Jacob Levy Moreno "dramas" from a representational politics to a politics of difference. Methodologically, it develops a conceptual analysis and an institutional critique, from the philosophies of the difference of Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. The projects and the practical orientation by the concepts of psychotherapy, existence, identity and freedom are questioned. The social genesis of morenian devices is approached in order to elucidate the formation of impasses on these projects and practices. It is concluded that the powers of the false function as a problematic axis to promote the displacement objectified.
