Abstract

This work presents as its central theme: The constitution of the autistic subject from the perspective of psychoanalysis and education: a look at early childhood education. Therefore, this work aims to investigate how the early childhood education teacher's understanding of the process of constitution of the autistic subject in psychoanalysis can contribute to the development of this child. The methodology was based on the survey of bibliographic material, with the purpose of identifying the causes of autism from the perspective of Psychoanalysis; know the maternal and paternal functions in the process of constitution of the subject in childhood; raise relevant points about the diagnoses of mental disorders and discuss issues related to the pedagogical practice of early childhood education teachers. It was found that Autism Spectrum Disorder is possibly associated with the development of Science and technologies and the transformations of contemporary society, among them the disorder in the social roles experienced in the family and society of our time, which derives from flaws in the symbolic system that is constituted on paternal and maternal functions; There has also been, in contemporary times, a move away from psychoanalytic theories in the investigation of mental disorders to give way to an exclusively biopsychological analysis of behavior and the body that does not take into account the subject and what is hidden – the unconscious.
