The unconscious in psychoanalysis is a fragile construct, prone to close itself. Such a closure may result from a lack of belief in the unconscious, or ... from belief in it. Belief bypasses it. So does science. Today, the most qualified resistance to the unconscious
comes from its adherents. The article shows that resistance is unavoidable in approaching the unconscious. Here, resistance is used to shed light on the structure of the unconscious itself. The attempt made by psychoanalysis to maintain the unconscious open is justified by the circumstance that its closure does not protect the subject from its effects. Between need and desire is symbolic castration. Modem society hinders the accomplishment of symbolic castration, with serious consequences, some of which are outlined. The present text is not quite as easy of access as was the spoken version. The jump from speech to writing is made in accordance with the object of the text. Any effort the reader may wish to furnish will thus be more adequately rewarded.

Ophavsret er tidsskriftets og forfatternes. Det er gældende praksis, at artikler publiceret i Psyke & Logos, som efterfølgende oversættes til andet sprog, af forfatteren frit kan publiceres i internationale tidsskrifter, dog således at det ved reference fremgår, at den oversatte artikel har et forlæg i en dansksproget version i Psyke & Logos. Artikler kan frit deles og linkes til på forsknings- og undervisningsnetværk (så som Blackboard). Link foretrækkes, fordi det giver oplysning om brug af tidsskriftets artikler.
