title: [Education in psychiatry].
abstract: In order to give young doctors a specialist training in psychiatry and psychotherapy and to have the necessary number of available posts, the concept of training presently practised should urgently be revided. To justify this demand, the author points to new developments within psychiatry itself as well as to external circumstances. He mentions firstly the extension of the knowledge itself, the pluralism in therapy, the growing specialization within the specialty, the diffusion of the roles as well as the identity crisis and secondly the disproportion to be expected between the number of young graduated doctors and the number of available posts. So that the readermay for his own opinion, the author refers to the relevant literature. The author's personal opinion and his proposals are discussed.
