EdipoGruppo

Self-generation as a structuring defense that testifies to the importance of groupal illusion in adolescence

Abstract.

The author, comparing groups of children and groups of adolescents with the same device, shows that the Oedipus complex does not have the same organizer function.
In adolescents, the primal scene, linked to its passivity, integrates them into an unbearable infantile sexual scene, and by passing through self-generation and gender complementarity, they can finally represent homo-generational sexuality.
Moreover, this system seems to be strongly supported by social values that help patients to be more interested in democracy.
