In order to construct him/herself, the autistic subject who refuses to become alienated, is confronted with the difficulty which only belongs to their subjective structure: how to treat the pleasure of living when they do not have the wherewith to mortify it which meaning constitutes? In this regard, the rare witness of high functioning autistic subjects who became involved in individual treatment teaches one a lot. They can be seen as a type of laboratory study of their subjective functioning. It is generally thought that in their rearing their needs should be pandered to. However, there is no educational practice which contemplates the option of having more or less explicit recourse to the use of the binary reward-punishment. That the autistic person knows about this duality is an assumption that is not questioned by those who set aside the theory of the subject.Downloads
