DORADO ROMERO, Juan. Freud: Terminable and Interminable Governments. Desafíos [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.2, pp.53-97. ISSN 0124-4035. https://doi.org/10.12804/desafios27.2.2015.02.
This article examines some of the contributions to political theory offered by the work of Sigmund Freud. Based on the results of his research on the human psyche, Freud's thinking evolved from an authoritarian elitist perspective towards a more democratic understanding of the internal world. He sought to establish benign limits to the fantasies of omnipotence that frame modern science and politics.
Palavras-chave : Freud; omnipotence; the dictatorship of reason; democratization of the self.
