El mecanismo psíquico primordial en este proceso es la identificación con el líder, los sujetos sustituyen el propio ideal del yo por esta figura tiránica y la sumisión a las normas grupales es lo que de esta identificación resulta. De otra parte, se analiza un rito de iniciación a un de estas bandas como un destello de totemismo que conduce a una interrogación sobre la función del padre que, en el caso particular, revela un semblante de padre obsceno o feroz que empuja a matar.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombiahttp://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/psicologia/article/view/15783Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Revista Colombiana de PsicologíaRevista Colombiana de PsicologíaRevista Colombiana de Psicología; núm. 2 (1993): Agresividad, violencia y ley; 55-61 2344-8644 0121-5469Ramírez, Mario Elkin (1993) Elements for an analysis of gangs of hired killers.

description This paper applies the Freudian axioms on group psychology to the conformation, functioning and disbanding of gangs of hired killers. The principal psychical mechanism is identification with the leader: the subjects substitute their own ego-ideal for this tyrannical figure. Submission to the group's norms is the result of this identification. A rite of initiation in one of these gangs is also analyzed in terms of totemism, and this leads to an examination of the father-function which here appears as an obscene and ferocious figure that instigates murder.
