Youth and Helplessness: report of an intervention research

Abstract

The present work is the result of an intervention carried out with a group of students from an NGO in the city of Rio de Janeiro, dedicated to teaching classical music to children and young people in a situation of social vulnerability. The fieldwork took place in a context of non-formal education, aiming to conceive the psychoanalytic clinic in an expanded perspective and, still, to insert psychoanalysis as a practice capable of producing clinical-political effects. Based on the Field Journal produced during the meetings, reflections are made in order to analyze the repercussions of the group space of reception and listening offered to young people, in an intertwining of theory and practice.
