Abstract:
Based on evidences grownded on scientific and philosophical historiography of modern and contemporary periods, this paper intends to discuss the scientific knowledge(s) after which every clinical practice (medical, psychiatric, psychotherapeutic or psychoanlitical receives its amount of previsibility. Suported by philosophical conceptions of critical nature, the author presents the cartesian dualism as a modern unfolding of Plato's standpoinf which beyond leading us to an epistemological hiatus between physical and mental aspects of mankind renewed the constraint of our thinking by cognitive routines of metaphysical characteristics to which seems to he reiated the epistemological limilations that underlie the conflicts psycodinamists and organicists have become involved in, in the name of Ethics and Science. Besides pointing to the ethical and epistemiological insufficiencies of onesided, reductive, therapeutic methods regardind Mental Disorders, as a conclusion the author argues as to the possibility of constructing the empirical integrality of the subject of psyciatric scientific investigation and clinical-therapeutical interventions.
