Abstract

[Autom. eng. transl.] Anyone who has spent his life supporting himself - sustaining security and ease, with a consequent social recognition even more than economic - can feel himself plunging into a bottomless darkness when this image breaks. We are used to identifying imagery with ephemeral, but we know well - with Mc Luhan - that there is nothing more erroneous: is it not by chance that we are prey to the fourth and well more than the fifth power, the media in fact? And yet, it is not this level that makes the impressive chain of suicides linked to entrepreneurial work so special as to profoundly interrogate those who work in a clinic oriented towards "social bonds". It is not in fact a question of finding a clinical meaning to the suicidal choice ... Its recurrence in this period induces reflections around identifying points that are of longer range. In the sinister light of these months, something seems to come into play that has been little focussed by the classical culture of the clinic, which must here assert not a so-called intrapsychic dimension, but its structural root itself in a linking logic
