Lacan Circle Cartels
A cartel is a small group of ‘cartelisands’ who elect to study and research together.
They choose a ‘plus-one’ to lead and animate the life of the cartel, facilitate a productive group dynamic, and maintain a distance between knowledge and truth

Guiding Principles
There is no standard treatment, no general procedure by which psychoanalytic treatment is governed … A psychoanalytic session is the place in which the most stable identifications by which a subject is attached can come undone … Psychoanalysis cannot decide what is aims are in terms of an adaptation of a subject’s singularity to any norms, rules, determinations, or standards of reality.
