Summary/Abstract: The paper intends to outline the parameters of a conceptual analysis on the so-called “dogma of the inseparable bond” (das Junktim dogma), which is said to exist between the processes of cure and research in the psychoanalytic interaction. Using Michel Foucault’s strategy of “returning to the origin”, which, according to the French thinker, marks the status of discourses, whose very possibility figures like Freud and Marx articulate, we argue that each analysis has its obligation to produce specific psychoanalytical knowledge about the unconscious and its functioning. It follows that the analyst–apart from their primary role in the course of treatment–is charged, by the very fact of their being an analyst, with the absolute responsibility of broadening the horizons of analytical knowledge.
