The adolescent passage in the modern world as organized by neo-liberalism seems to be organized differently from the rites of passage of ancient times. The peer group appears to young people as the ideal solution for a full and complete realization of desire, which we know from psychoanalysis is impossible. Psychodrama, a special, fictitious group emerges then as one of the most effective means of allowing « young people without limits » to find castration in a form that is not destructive of the subject, through depression, or of the other, through violence, thanks to a confrontation with the Other that the psychodramatist maintains.
