René Kaës argues that psychoanalytic work with groups, families, and institutions reveals the existence of multiple spaces of psychic reality — intrapsychic, intersubjective, and groupal — whose articulation is essential for processes of symbolization and subjectivation. The author examines how transformations of hypermodern societies have weakened metasocial and metapsychic guarantors that formerly supported identity and social cohesion, generating “subjectless processes”, fragile bonds, and the loss of shared symbolic references. In this context, group psychoanalytic devices offer elaborative potential to contain violence and destructiveness, fostering processes of linkage, thought, and collective elaboration of contemporary psychic suffering and enabling new conditions for psychic transformation. El texto propone comprender los dispositivos multisubjetivos como una extensión del psicoanálisis capaz de responder a las formas contemporáneas del malêtre, entendido como una crisis que afecta los fundamentos de la vida psíquica y los vínculos sociales. René Kaës plantea que el trabajo psicoanalítico con grupos, familias e instituciones permite reconocer la existencia de múltiples espacios de realidad psíquica —intrapsíquico, intersubjetivo y grupal— cuya articulación resulta clave para los procesos de simbolización y subjetivación. El autor analiza cómo las transformaciones de la hipermodernidad han debilitado los garantes metasociales y metapsíquicos que sostenían la identidad y la cohesión social, generando procesos “sin sujeto”, fragilización de los vínculos y pérdida de referencias simbólicas compartidas. Frente a estas condiciones, los dispositivos psicoanalíticos grupales ofrecen potencialidades elaborativas para contener la violencia y la destructividad, promoviendo procesos de ligazón, pensamiento y elaboración colectiva del sufrimiento psíquico contemporáneo.

| description |
The text proposes understanding multisubjective devices as an extension of psychoanalysis capable of responding to contemporary forms of malêtre, conceived as a crisis affecting the foundations of psychic life and social bonds. René Kaës argues that psychoanalytic work with groups, families, and institutions reveals the existence of multiple spaces of psychic reality — intrapsychic, intersubjective, and groupal — whose articulation is essential for processes of symbolization and subjectivation. The author examines how transformations of hypermodern societies have weakened metasocial and metapsychic guarantors that formerly supported identity and social cohesion, generating “subjectless processes”, fragile bonds, and the loss of shared symbolic references. In this context, group psychoanalytic devices offer elaborative potential to contain violence and destructiveness, fostering processes of linkage, thought, and collective elaboration of contemporary psychic suffering and enabling new conditions for psychic transformation. |
