520			_aThrough a quick overview of the “scientific” history of autism, the author first highlights the signifiers at stake in what has become “the spearhead of a new outlook on mental illness and disability”: autism as the focus of all knowledge, the fetish of the etiological cause. However, hypothetical somatic discoveries tend to take precedence as causes of autism, due to a lack of an established organic etiology. The article questions their dubious scientific worth and the flaws in treatment that can ensue. The aim is not so much to denounce the market behind it all as to further question the underlying core of the problem, the reason behind their success: that is, the suffering of the parents. As a result, psychoanalysis should not have to deal with the autistic child since it would be an outdated practice, from a time when science was not developed enough to have anything to say about autism. According to Lacan, science “wants nothing to do with the truth as a cause.”
