In this article, Professor Jacques André seeks to "make it work" (criticize/interpret) the Freudian theory of the original (primary) horde. That means, on one side, he shows its lacks and simplifications and, on the other, he drives it up to its possible consequences and variants. Such journey through the Freudian work will allow the author the existence of a second theory of the original horde in Freud, incompatible with the first - the best known - the Totem and Taboo theory.
