repressive desublimation Sexuality can be sublime. Precisely the value creation is linking the eros for other purposes, so the energy of desire is directed toward goals that come to supplant the sexual satisfaction with other types of rewards. Lacan says that sublimation is to raise something to the "dignity of the thing." The thing is the absolute, is the glory of the merger with the mother. Uterine experience of total satisfaction. Sublimation allows the emergence of what Lacan calls the "small objects." That is, the object-cause of desire. These lures that guide our effort, our being in the world. Then the sublimation of sexuality separates us and makes room for culture. Finally, sublimation is the process through which an individual or society, eros recanalized energies, we construct a firmament of values. Sublimation thus involves replacing a satisfaction more "impulsive" by a more "high." But can fade sublimation. This raises the issue of de-sublimation. The values \u200b\u200bare falling. It then returns to satisfactions "elementary." Zizek poses the "repressive de-sublimation" as characteristic of our times. It is, for example, how sex has returned from the release of the 60's. Desublimation because this return implies a more sensory experience, closer to the drive, which replaces also idealizations that no longer hold. And since the return of repression is no longer open and carefree experience. Is a (false) expectation of glory promoted by the consumer society. An activity that attracts more than satisfying. Repressive sublimation is the proliferation of pornography in the clearest expression.
