520			_aThis article focuses on the experience of the children of political exiles, often born in the country that received their parents and whose adolescent process takes place in the back and forth between these two countries. In this context, the adolescent difficulties of individuation are accentuated by the lack of recognition, identification, and history. Two cases of young adults who grew up and lived their adolescence in exile illustrate this difficult individuation in adolescence when the risk of the breakdown of parental figures is always present. The issue of recognition by the socius is first discussed as an introduction of a possible figuration of an ideal “elsewhere” that makes a “here” impossible. Finally, the inscription of a personal history of exile is discussed. The analytic space proves to be a reliable environment, able to receive the acted repetition of these young adults during their emotional journey, an adequate environment for the heroic journey—which reveals truth and gives access to loss. It gives access not only to a symbolic and social recognition, but to the family novel, to filiation, and to transmission. Without it, the process of adolescence is never accomplished in these young adults.
