Armed conflicts and poverty are not the only motives for migration. At present, subjects tend to escape from everything that no longer guarantees their rights as citizens or that has stopped giving them satisfaction, a common trait in today’s consumerist society. That is, not only extreme risky conditions, but also each individual’s subjectivity is involved in “forced displacements”; there is a part of the subject’s desire that is looking to create something new. The postmodern discourse that states that "everything has an expiration date”, as well as the fading of the name of the father and weakening of attachments challenge the survival of the family and society. Given this, what is the role of the psychoanalyst in this new era? Is it relevant to advocate for a return to the father or not? What is the value that can be given to the name of the father considering its essential role in the subject’s desire and jouissance?

Keywords : forced displacements; postmodernity; subjectivity; name of the father; family.
