Abstract

Based on questions about the resurgence of conservatism in the subjective and social levels; the difficulty of subjects to sustain the place of difference and human inequality present in the current Brazilian scenario, we chose two events played by supporters of the government in office in the country to analyze the intertwining of consciousness with the unconscious in the actions of the subject towards the other, according to the notion of power in Freudian and Marx's readings. In Freudian psychoanalysis, power is strictly related to the infantile and to the subject's unconscious processes. In Marxism, power is linked to the concept of ideology and the notion of class consciousness. Considering the powers and limits of these two theoretical matrices that approach power, analyses are forged to instigate new horizons of political action to be drawn in the dynamic relationships between private and public, singular and collective, unconscious and conscious contents.
