From 3 Feb 2015 to 27 Sept 2016, SALP was the object of an an unlawful attack and unethical interference with its work by Dr Mladen Dolar and the institutions connected with the Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis (presided by Dr Slavoj Žižek).
Lacanian psychoanalysis in Slovenia is facing specific circumstances. Despite the knowledge about Lacan’s work, Lacanian psychoanalysis did not exist until 2015. This is due to the fact that knowledge about Lacan’s work entered Slovenia in the 1980’s at the time of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. At that time it became a political ideology under the name ‘’theoretical psychoanalysis’’, which flourished in the transitional time of the 1990’s through the privatisation of public property by the Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis. During that time the Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis under the editorial of Slavoj Žižek, Mladen Dolar and Alenka Zupančič, has been publishing unauthorised translations of Lacan’s Seminars and parts of Seminars in a journal Problemi, and plagiarised the work of Jacques-Alain Miller.
In 2015, the year of SALP’s creation, the Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis intentionally used the university, media, and political power in order to prevent the events of SALP and the Freudian Field, and to discredit the first Slovenian Lacanian Psychoanalysts.
Reports about the obstruction of Lacanian psychoanalysis in Slovenia were published in announcements of the International Psychoanalytic Movement ZADIG of the World Association of Psychoanalysis (WAP) in May 2017.
