Le passage à l'acte à l'épreuve du post-contemporain

Our conclusion demonstrates that acts on the body of the other and acts on one's own body coincide. Acting out in the form of murder or suicide masks the wish for an act of passage, which is however impossible. The act of passage from one gender to the other requires an acting out that sometimes cannot be countenanced. With those whose aim is an act of passage, it is an acting out that must be sought. Similarly, with those who act-out, the need is to try to restore, in the aftermath, the possibility of an act of passage.
