The introduction of the notion ofdas Ding, the Thing, in the 7 Seminar: the ethics of the psychoanalysis is of crucial importance as well as for the clinic psychoanalytic as for the general ethics reflection. Lacan takes from Kant the notion of moral law as categorical imperative, which, for him, it has the force of a necessary law for its logical articulation. Lacan gives to das Ding the same statute of categorical coercion. i.e., he articulate the real part of the enjoyment with the Freud’s beyond the pleasure principle. The scandalous point is that the psychoanalysis shows the position of the subject when he/she wants to be good in the middle of the bad conditions and the sacrifice consequences this entails.
