Today, capitalism functions as a very complex tool of colonisation capturing our desires, dreams, and putting life itself at risk. Its effects lead us all to times of extreme anxiety increasing the number of people with mental health problems. This paper is concerned with the question of ‘critique’ within this context. How can critical legal scholarship engage with a theoretical mode that allows us to confront the politics of law with today’s capitalism? This analysis shows that contemporary capitalism, which operates as an immanent desiring-machine, is investing in our unconscious. In this sense, we aim to rethink the idea of ‘critique’ as an opportunity to make it creative and effective. As such, this paper argues that the Deleuzian concept Critical and Clinical is particularly useful, as it opens new roots for the critical movement. Taking the literary strategy of Masochism and the experience of the Institutional Psychotherapy movement in France, the clinical–critical practice contributes to push and expand critical scholarship into new terrains of thought and practice.

反思批判：成为临床医生

今天，资本主义是一种非常复杂的殖民工具，可以捕捉我们的欲望、梦想，并将生命置于危险之中。它的影响使我们所有人都陷入极度焦虑的时期，从而增加了患有心理健康问题的人数。本文关注的是在这种背景下的“批判”问题。批判性法律学术如何与一种理论模式相结合，使我们能够以当今的资本主义对抗法律政治？这一分析表明，作为内在欲望机器运作的当代资本主义正在投资于我们的无意识。从这个意义上说，我们的目标是重新思考“批评”的概念，将其视为使其具有创造性和有效性的机会。因此，本文认为德勒兹的批判性和临床性概念特别有用，因为它为批判运动开辟了新的根源。
