The term subjectivation was introduced by Lacan in his Écrits of the post-war years. But it was in his seminar of May-June 1964 on the drive that he was to give subjectivation its full status as a psychoanalytic concept, following in the wake of Freud’s “Instincts and their Vicissitudes” (“Destins des Pulsions”) (1915), for whom the reversal of the aim into the passive mode first requires the installation of an extraneous subject (Subjekt) to satisfy the subject’s own self. However, the subjectivating interaction, which gave such an important focus to Lacan’s research until 1964 was subsequently to give way in his work to a structuralist conception opposed to Anglo-Saxon subjectivism.
