No. 2 (2000): School: a time for development

In this second volume of the journal *Stylus*, themed "School: A Time for Elaboration," the publication establishes itself as a product of the *Espaço-Escola* (School-Space) of the *Associação Fóruns do Campo Lacaniano* (AFCL). It focuses on a rigorous, collective discussion regarding the construction of a novel community for analytical work. Founding a School of Psychoanalysis capable of welcoming and sustaining the analytical act requires recognizing that a "time for elaboration" is logically necessary to debate its principles, foundations, and mechanisms—thereby setting in motion social bonds oriented by the discourse of the analyst, while rejecting the hierarchy inherent in the discourse of the master.

This edition brings together contributions from various authors exploring transference, training, and the School’s cardinal mechanisms: the *cartel*—a mode of transmission and elaboration that dismantles "mass" effects—and the *pass*—conceived as a means to interrogate the transition from analysand to analyst and to position the analyst’s desire at the very heart of the institution. Through theoretical reflections, critical essays on the history of the psychoanalytic movement, and accounts of clinical and institutional experience, this volume reaffirms the commitment to building a "School of analysands"—one that remains open to the *real* and is guided by the crucial questions bequeathed by Freud and Lacan.
