“…There are, it is true, new resources supporting implementation as well. In addition to all the resources of the expanding field of contemporary phenomenological psychopathology ( Stanghellini et al, 2019 ), there are resources of theory from other areas of philosophy: from analytic philosophy (on the concept of “person,” as above); and on the relational nature of values (see, e.g., Bergqvist, 2018 ): and from non-European philosophies (such as Batho Pele, a distinct form of values-based practice based on African philosophical concepts that bridge the individual/social divide, van Staden, 2021 ). While as to practical resources, co-production between experts-by-training and experts-by-experience, for all the challenges it presents to traditional models of professionalism, is a potentially powerful resource supporting developments in person-centered practice in all areas of health care.…”

This paper argues that a dialectical synthesis of phenomenology’s traditional twin roles in psychiatry (one science-centered, the other individual-centered) is needed to support the recovery-oriented practice that is at the heart of contemporary person-centered mental health care. The paper is in two main sections. Section I illustrates the different ways in which phenomenology’s two roles have played out over three significant periods of the history of phenomenology in 20th century psychiatry: with the introduction of phenomenology in Karl Jaspers’ General Psychopathology in 1913; with the development a few years later of structural phenomenological psychopathology; and in the period of post-War humanism. Section II is concerned with the role of phenomenology in contemporary mental health. There has been a turn to phenomenology in the current period, we argue, in response to what amounts to an uncoupling of academic psychiatry from front-line clinical care. Corresponding with the two roles of phenomenology, this uncoupling has both scientific aspects and clinical aspects. The latter, we suggest, is most fully expressed in a new model of “recovery,” defined, not by the values of professionals as experts-by-training, but by the values of patients and carers as experts-by-experience, specifically, by what is important to the quality of life of the individual concerned in the situation in question. We illustrate the importance of recovery, so defined, and the challenges raised by it for both the evidence-base and the values-base of clinical decision-making, with brief clinical vignettes. It is to these challenges we argue, that phenomenology through a synthesis of its twin roles is uniquely equipped to respond. Noting, however, the many barriers to such a synthesis, we argue that in the current state of development of the field, it is by way of a dialectical synthesis of phenomenology’s roles that we should proceed. From such a dialectic, a genuine synthesis of roles may ultimately emerge. We conclude with a note on the wider significance of these developments, arguing that contrary to 20th century stereotypes, they show psychiatry to be leading the way for healthcare as a whole, in developing the resources for 21st century person-centered clinical care.

“…Freud is not, however, the only exception to psychology's generally nonrevelatory nature. Another is the broad tradition of phenomenologyunderstood as encompassing, principally, existential phenomenology and phenomenolog-A FLAW IN THE GREAT DIAMOND OF THE WORLD ical psychopathology (Broome, Harland, Owen, & Stringaris, 2012;Stanghellini et al, 2019)-and it is this that I would like to focus on now.…”

In this article, I consider the problematic nature of human subjectivity, which the philosopher Merleau-Ponty (borrowing from poet Paul Valéry) referred to as the "flaw in the great diamond of the world." We are "self-interpreting animals" who largely create ourselves through our own modes of self-understanding, yet our own subjectivity remains enigmatic even to ourselves. I consider, in light of these facts, the status of several dominant ways of conceptualizing human existence in psychology and the psy professions: cognitivebehavioral theory, psychoanalysis, and especially existential-phenomenology. Before doing so, however, I first offer an historical sketch of the focus on subjectivity that began in the European Renaissance, notably through such figures as Shakespeare and Rembrandt. It is important to explore this advent of modern subjectivity, if only to remind us of what can be at risk in the course of cultural change. As psychologists, we are often preoccupied with practical or empirical issues. A key question to ask, however, is whether our field-which plays a formative role in contemporary culture-does sufficient justice to the forms of subjectivity and selfhood that came into focus or even into being during that crucial era of Western history.

“…Así, se genera también un comportamiento que tiende a reforzar las alteraciones relacionales en la disrupción de la generación Algunas de estas ideas podrían ser encontradas de cierta manera en otros modelos en salud mental y filosofía. Por ejemplo, en el psicoanálisis relacional (Stolorow et al, 1994), la terapia de la forma (Koehler, 1992), la psicopatología fenomenológica (Fulford et al, 2013;Stanghellini et al, 2019), el pragmatismo (Dewey, 1991;James, 2017), la terapia sistémica-cibernética (Bateson, 1972;Bertrando y Lini, 2021) y la psiquiatría cultural y social (Kirmayer y Young, 1999;Morgan y Bhugra, 2010). Esto es concordante con las diversas inspiraciones del enfoque enactivo en su génesis.…”

La búsqueda de un pluralismo integrativo en filosofía de la ciencia presenta ecos fructíferos en discusiones contemporáneas de la filosofía de la psiquiatría, sobre todo en torno a la necesidad de un pluralismo que supere un reduccionismo neurobiológico y un eclecticismo biopsicosocial. Los trabajos de la filósofa Sandra Mitchell constituirán un punto de partida para visualizar la necesidad de un paradigma pluralista, al mismo tiempo que permitirán exponer la tesis de que es necesario un modelo que permita una integración real entre las diversas dimensiones relevantes en psiquiatría para así no caer implícitamente nuevamente en un pluralismo reduccionista. En esta línea, se analizarán críticamente las perspectivas que han surgido en psiquiatría a la hora de lograr un pluralismo integrativo. Finalmente se revisará el modelo enactivo en ciencia cognitiva y su aplicación en psiquiatría como un posible alternativa en búsqueda de una integración en psiquiatría que permita un pluralismo integrativo a nivel ontológico, permitiendo un camino medio entre una psiquiatría neurocéntrica y una ecléctica relativista.
