Psychosocial support center and territory: human space, communication, and interdisciplinarity

Abstract

The psychiatric reform is addressed from a theoretical and conceptual perspective through the concept of territory, which is analyzed as human space, as communication, and as related to the way interdisciplinary knowledge is produced. These concepts (territory and interdisciplinarity) were identified in a semistructured interview with the psychiatrist and professor Pedro Gabriel Delgado, who classified them as operative. We conclude that this understanding enables theory and practice to be configured as praxis, producing meanings and transformations and enabling close ties between the functioning of community-based services and the transformation of the relationship between insanity and society.
