Summary/Abstract: To live and work together with others in groups and institutions supposes also confronting with particular aggressions: perverse psychosocial attacks. Starting from an actual case (a high school teacher confronted with an attack from one of his pupils) situations used as discussion subject in a group focused on analyzing educational situations, the author discusses the studies on narcissistic perversions, conducted mostly by Racamier. The frequency of this kind of attacks and the thinking effort needed to answer them, often force us to ignore them or to give an answer who produces a feeling of humiliation or incompetence. The obvious difficulty to elaborate and reply immediately, addressing to several persons simultaneously deserves being studied. Although perverse psychosocial behaviors and perverse sexual behaviors are clearly related, they act on different stages and can be differentiated. This paper wants to be a contribution to the study of this problem and to the increase of clinical and epistemological vigilance.
