The term "Lacanian Left" does not refer to an existing unity or essence that underlies all diverse theoretical-political projects. In true Lacanian style, one might even say that the Lacanian left "doesn't exist!" This means that it does not impose itself on the theoretical-political field as a homogeneous and complete proof. In fact, its division is the best proof of its existence, because, as everyone knows, there is only one test that can show beyond any reasonable doubt whether such a field really exists or not, wherever there is left. There must be a division between the apparently "real" left and the "false" left, or between revolutionaries and reformers. This seems to be exactly true of the Lacanian left.
