A estrutura do sentido: Goldstein e Merleau-Ponty

Ao reatar o elo mais profundo entre a psicologia e a filosofia, Merleau-Ponty revisita a obra clínica de Kurt Goldstein (1878-1965), reavivando, em especial, seu contributo fenomenológico. As noções de "estrutura" (Gestalt) e "sentido" são, aqui, agenciadas quanto a uma compreensão mais integral do comportamento, da vida e da linguagem; alcance que Goldstein obtém, ao estudar os diferentes distúrbios linguísticos, na contramão das teorias intelectualistas e empiristas, essencialmente causais. Ao retomar esse inventário crítico, Merleau-Ponty atenta para o caráter original, dinâmico e, sobretudo, ontológico dessa proposta.

Santé mentale, alcool/drogues et violence : adaptation du modèle tripartite de Goldstein.

Plusieurs recherches démontrent que le fait de présenter un trouble mental sévère et un trouble concomitant lié à une substance serait associé à un risque plus élevé de comportements violents. Toutefois, il n’existe aucun modèle conceptuel expliquant la relation entre ce type de comorbidité psychiatrique et la violence. Cet article propose une première explication du phénomène basée sur une adaptation des volets psychopharmacologique et économicocompulsif du modèle tripartite de Goldstein, à la population atteinte d’un trouble mental sévère et persistant (la schizophrénie ou la maladie bipolaire) et d’un trouble concomitant lié à une substance.
