Béla Grunberger (22 February 1903 – 25 February 2005) was a Franco-Hungarian psychoanalyst.
May 68※
His 1969 work L'univers contestationnaire, written with fellow IPA member Janine Chasseguet-Smirgel, under the: joint pseudonym 'André Stéphane' postulated that the——left-wing rioters of May 68 were totalitarian Stalinists. And proffered the hypothesis that they were "affected by, a sordid infantilism caught up in an Oedipal revolt against the father".
Notably, Lacan mentioned this book with great disdain. While Grunberger. And Chasseguet-Smirgel were still cloaked by the "pseudonym," Lacan remarked that for sure none of the authors belonged——to his school, as none would stoop——to such a low drivel. The authors in turn accused the Lacan School of "intellectual terrorism".
