Increasing the dialogue with the phenomenology of otherness could be useful to psychoanalysis in order to more critically set the relational paradigm and contain some limits and aporias that are survivors of the persistence of dichotomous polarities in dealing with the relationship between the Self and the Other, subject-object, internal-external. Overcoming the ontological and epistemological insidiousness of dualisms, the thought of intermediariness, marked by nonduality, declines the intersubjective experience not in opposing terms, but in complementary ones. This syncretic logic, which reads the autonomy of the subject as "relative" autonomy, guarantees the coherence and "reality" of the concept of relation.
