Lives marked by violence:

macrosocial and subjective aspects

Keywords: violence, neoliberalism, experience reports, psychoanalysis, health policies

Abstract

This article, which concerns two years of experience in a Residency Program in Mental Health and Public Health, aims to make a reflection about the many ways in wich violence presents itself in people's life history who were assisted. We started the discussion the invisibility of what Zizek (2014) calls systemic violence. In a second moment, we use the contributions of psychoanalysis to think about the transgenerational effect of violence. We used an experience report and a case study to analyze some real situations. Finally, we emphasize the importance of the clinical and political act of searching the memory and helping these people to produce their own narratives about these traumatic events
